Overcome Medication-Induced Nausea: A 9-Step Plan
  • Inform your doctor about the nausea and discuss possible alternatives to the medication or adjustments to the dosage.
  • Divide your daily food intake into smaller, more frequent meals to reduce nausea.
  • Opt for bland, easily digestible foods like crackers, toast, plain rice, bananas, and applesauce.
  • Avoid certain foods that can trigger nausea, such as fatty, greasy, spicy, and smelly foods.
  • Drink plenty of fluids, such as water, clear broth, or electrolyte-rich beverages like coconut water or sports drinks.
  • Use ginger (tea, ale, or candies) to help relieve nausea.
  • Get adequate rest and also avoid strenuous activities that can worsen nausea.
  • Talk to your doctor about taking anti-nausea medication if your nausea is severe.
  • Record when your nausea occurs, what triggers it, and what provides relief to help you identify patterns and manage your symptoms more effectively.
  • Keep your skin clean by gently washing your face two times daily and after sweating. Choose a mild and non-abrasive cleanser.
  • Use gentle alcohol-free skin care products. Avoid products that might irritate your skin such as exfoliants, astringents and toners.
  • Acne may also occur due to oil in the hair. Thus, if you have oily hair, shampoo more frequently than you do now and keep your hair away from face.
  • Keep your hands off your face as touching face throughout the day might worsen acne. Also, do not pick, squeeze or pop acne as it will prolong the healing process and increase the risk of dark spots and scarring.
  • Avoid tanning by applying a broad spectrum sunscreen and wearing sun-protective clothing when outdoors.

Health Queries

I accidentally took two tablets of Deviry 10 mg within a 6-hour gap (the medication was prescribed for my wife). Are there any possible side effects or risks from this?

G.santoshini Reddy

Taking two doses of Deviry (10 mg) within a short gap is unlikely to cause serious harm in most cases, especially as a one-time mistake, but you may experience mild side effects such as nausea, dizziness, headache, drowsiness, or temporary hormonal effects. Since this medicine is a hormone, it is not intended for use without prescription (and is usually prescribed for women), so no further doses should be taken, and you can simply monitor yourself for any unusual symptoms. If you feel severe dizziness, vomiting, or any concerning reaction, it is best to consult a doctor. Otherwise, no specific treatment is usually needed, and the effects should settle on their own.

I missed my period and had a negative pregnancy test. I took Deviry 10 mg along with iron supplements, but my period has still not started. How long does it usually take for periods to begin after this medication?

G.santoshini Reddy

M Pharmacy (Pharmaceutics)

After taking Deviry, periods usually do not start while you are taking the tablets but begin after you complete the course, typically within 3-7 days (and sometimes up to 10 days) of stopping the medication, as it works by causing a withdrawal bleed. A negative pregnancy test is reassuring, but if there was any recent risk, you may repeat the test or consider a blood test for confirmation. Iron supplements do not affect when your period starts. If you have finished the full course and still do not get your period after about 10 days, or if this issue keeps happening, you should consult your doctor for further evaluation to check for hormonal imbalance or conditions like Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.

After taking Deviry tablets as prescribed, I am experiencing side effects such as low mood, headache, and drowsiness. How can I manage these symptoms?

G.santoshini Reddy

G.santoshini Reddy

M Pharmacy (Pharmaceutics)

Mild side effects like low mood, headache, and drowsiness can occur with Deviry because it is a hormone-based medicine, and these symptoms usually improve on their own after completing the course. To manage them, make sure you get adequate rest, stay well hydrated, eat regular, balanced meals, and avoid activities like driving if you feel drowsy; simple pain relief like paracetamol may help with headaches if needed. Try to reduce stress and maintain a regular sleep routine, as this can also improve mood. However, if your symptoms are severe, persist beyond a few days after stopping the medicine, or you experience significant mood changes (like worsening depression), it is important to contact your doctor for advice, they may adjust the dose or suggest an alternative. Do not stop or change the medication on your own without medical guidance.

I have PCOD and irregular periods. My gynecologist prescribed Deviry 10 mg (twice daily). I had unprotected intercourse 3 weeks ago and have not yet gotten my period even after 5 days of taking the medication. A pregnancy test is negative. What should I do next?

G.santoshini Reddy

G.santoshini Reddy

M Pharmacy (Pharmaceutics)

With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, periods can be irregular, and medicines like Deviry are often given to induce a withdrawal bleed, which usually occurs after completing the full course and stopping the tablets, sometimes taking up to 7-10 days to start. Since you had unprotected intercourse 3 weeks ago, a negative home pregnancy test is reassuring, but for complete certainty, you can repeat the test after a few days or get a blood test (beta-hCG). For now, continue the medication exactly as prescribed and wait for a week after finishing the course; if you still do not get your period, or if you develop symptoms like severe pain or heavy bleeding, you should revisit your gynaecologist for further evaluation (such as an ultrasound or hormone tests). Avoid taking additional medicines on your own, and try to maintain a healthy lifestyle, as PCOD-related irregularity is common but manageable with proper care.

I had unprotected intercourse just after my period and took an emergency contraceptive pill (i-pill). I have not had my period for a month, and pregnancy tests are negative. I have now started taking Deviry 10 mg. What is the correct dosage and duration for this medication?

G.santoshini Reddy

G.santoshini Reddy

M Pharmacy (Pharmaceutics)

After taking an emergency contraceptive like i-pill, it is common for your next period to be delayed or irregular due to hormonal changes, and since your pregnancy tests are negative, pregnancy is unlikely (you may repeat a test after a few days if still unsure). Deviry is often prescribed to induce a withdrawal bleed, and the usual course is taken for about 5-10 days (the exact dose and duration should be followed strictly as advised by your doctor), after which periods typically start within a week of stopping the tablets. It is important not to self-adjust the dose, and if you still do not get your period after completing the course, or if you develop symptoms like severe pain or heavy bleeding, you should consult your doctor for further evaluation. Maintaining a regular routine, managing stress, and monitoring your cycle can also help normalise periods over time.
