Promethazine HCL (or hydrochloride) has quite a few different uses. The main use is as an Antihistamine. It can also be used for motion sickness as well as other causes of nausea/vomiting and pain management. It's a Category C drug to use while pregnant, meaning that no adequate studies have been done on humans.
I myself was on Phenergan for 7 months of my pregnancy, 2-4 times a day at 25 mg. I had extreme nausea/vomiting that was uncontrolled without it. My baby girl is 110% healthy with no adverse effects. If you're unsure, never hesitate to call your doctor and speak to them about it. They'll be able to give you the best information.
Thanks for your help :) x
I had cancer during my second pregnancy and a to use iv phenergan or promethazine (generic name) I was on 50 mg every 6 hrs pretty much constantly. My daughter was fine and we never had an problems in resulting from it's use in my pregnancy. Now I'm 32 weeks with baby #3 and I still use it, well pill form now thankfully. Cancer is gone, but I also suffer with Gastroparesis...so far so good. :)
