Starting a new medication and feeling nauseous is really rough — especially when you're already dealing with HS. You're not alone in this!

Nausea can be a side effect of several medications commonly used for HS. It's worth noting that some of the more commonly reported side effects of Bimzelx include upper respiratory infections, headache, and fungal infections, rather than nausea specifically. That said, nausea can sometimes be managed with a few simple adjustments:

- Try taking your medication with food
- If it's a pill-based medication, consider taking it right before bedtime
- Check all listed side effects on your medication packaging
- Talk to your pharmacist — they're a great resource for this kind of thing

It's really important to let your doctor or dermatologist know what you're experiencing. They can help figure out whether the nausea is related to Bimzelx or something else, and suggest the best next steps for you.
