Patients will be divided into two equal groups. One group will receive tablet ginger while other group will receive Doxylamine succinate tablets. Baseline PUQE score (3- 15 point scale) over 24 hour will be noted according to symptoms of nausea and vomiting following 7 days of treatment and then at 2nd and 3rd week.
