Brief Answer:
Hi and welcome

Detailed Answer:
Certain degree of fatigue and dizziness is expected in pregnancy and this is normal since hormonal changes occur. but also it can be side effect of anti-nausea pills and rarely it could indicate some more serious conditions. I suggest to try with another antinausea drugs or reduce dosage. And check your electrolyte and vitamins levels. Also, drink enough fluids and eat easier food. Wish you good health. Feel free to ask.
