Kim Kardashian got herself an endorsement deal for prescription drug Diclegis, a pill given to pregnant women to fight the nausea and vomiting of morning sickness during their first trimester.
Kim,who is carrying baby No. 2, posed with a bottle of Diclegis in an instagram post captioning “OMG. Have you heard about this?…As you guys know, my #morningsickness has been pretty bad. I tried changing things about my lifestyle, like my diet, but nothing helped, so I talked to my doctor.” According to her, the doctor prescribed Diclegis, which made her feel a lot better. She also added, “And most importantly, it’s been studied and there’s no increased risk to the baby.”
Fans however, beg to question whether or not celebrities should be promoting pregnancy drugs but of more concern is the safety of the drug formerly known as Bendectin which has a controversial history of allegedly causing heart defects in babies. Reports have refuted the claim saying that even the FDA has approved it as a Pregnancy Category A drug, meaning that “adequate and well-controlled studies have failed to demonstrate a risk to the fetus in the first trimester of pregnancy”. No evidence shows that it is harmful in other
