Consider whether your attitude towards or feelings about the medications you take might be contributing to your nausea. After taking large numbers of medications for years, some HIV-positive people feel nauseous at the mere sight of a bottle of pills. Try acupressure or acupuncture. Ask your doctor about anti-nausea medications. When nausea won't lessen or go away with practical or dietary changes, anti-nausea medications might help.
Some people report success in managing nausea by using medical marijuana.
If nausea prevents you from taking pills or holding them down, some anti-nausea medications are available as suppositories, which act quickly and reliably. Talk to your doctor about the risks and benefits of anti-nausea medications. While they may ease feelings of nausea, they may also have their own side effects. Some are not recommended for use during pregnancy. If you already take medications to treat HIV, consider whether adding another prescription is something you can and want to do.
