Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe, it could be due to the gastric irritation due to the drugs you are using, if taken empty stomach.
Pregnancy may not be the cause, as there should be amenorrhea.
I advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment .
He may prescribe you omeprazole,domperidone, and paracetamol.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. thank you.
