Morning Sickness.

The article focuses on the historical use and risks of thalidomide, a drug once widely prescribed in the 1950s for morning sickness in pregnant women but later banned in 1960-61 due to causing limb deformities in newborns. It highlights a recent incident in the U.S. where an AI search engine incorrectly recommended thalidomide for morning sickness, underscoring the importance of consulting trusted healthcare providers and verifying medical information. The article also explains that morning sickness, characterized by nausea and vomiting during pregnancy, is generally mild and managed with vitamin B6, antihistamines, dietary adjustments, and rest, while severe cases require medical attention.
