ABSTRACT

Qay?al-Haml (Nausea and vomiting in pregnancy) is defined as the symptom of nausea and/or vomiting during early pregnancy. It occurs in up to 80% of pregnant. The physical problems of coping with qay?al-haml can lead to emotional problems, which can in turn exacerbate the physical problems, having a significant reduction in quality of life. Nausea and vomiting (Qay?al-haml) are considered atypical and almost inevitable feature of pregnancy. Concern about the harmful effect of medication on the fetus may cause many women not to seek treatment or to try alternative therapies for nausea and vomiting. The classical Unani sources viz., Al-Qanun fi?l Tibb (Canon of Medicine), Iksir-i-A„zam, Al Hawi fi?l Tibb (Continens Liber), Tarjuma Kamil al-Sana„a al-Tibbiyya, Dhakhira Khawarizm Shahi, and Tibbi-Akbar were reviewed. Further, different search engines were also browsed on the website to explore recent studies. Various Unani drugs are mentioned for the treatment of qay?al-haml including gulqand, sikanjabeen sada, sharbat anar sheerin, sikanjabeen lemooni, jawarish anarain, mastagi, ilaichi etc. The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of sikanjabeen lemooni in qay?al- haml.
