FAQ
Hyoscine. Hyoscine is usually the most effective medicine for motion sickness. It is also known as scopolamine. It works by preventing the confusing nerve messages going to the brain.
The most frequently used antihistamines to treat motion sickness include cyclizine, dimenhydrinate, meclizine, and promethazine (oral and suppository); nonsedating antihistamines appear to be less effective.
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using Dramamine if you are pregnant or breast feeding. Also, talk to your doctor before starting Dramamine if you have a medical history of asthma, chronic bronchitis, emphysema, difficulty urinating due to an enlarged prostate gland, glaucoma, or convulsions (seizures).
The most common signs and symptoms of motion sickness include: Nausea and vomiting. Pale skin. Cold sweats. Dizziness. Headache. Increased salivation. Fatigue.
These are the most commonly used medications for motion sickness, and they're available in any drug store and in many supermarkets. Cyclizine (Marezine) and dimenhydrinate (Dramamine) are two major ones.
But if you'd like to try overcoming motion sickness for good, here are some techniques. Take control of the situation. Curb your consumption. Get into position. Equalize your sensory cues. Talk yourself down. Get desensitized. Pre-treat with ginger. Get in touch with your pressure points.
Options include prescription scopolamine patches (Transderm Scop) and over-the-counter antihistamine pills, like dimenhydrinate (Dramamine) and meclizine (Bonine). Studies suggest that scopolamine patches work just as well as dimenhydrinate, but better than meclizine. They may be less sedating than antihistamines, too.
However, many studies show that as a whole, Dramamine is more effective at preventing motion sickness. It's less convenient because of the dosing increments. Another option is scopolamine, which is commonly known as the round patch placed behind one's ear.
If you're susceptible to motion sickness: Focus on the horizon or on a distant, stationary object. Keep your head still, while resting against a seat back. Don't smoke and don't sit near smokers. Avoid strong odors, spicy and greasy foods, and alcohol. Take an antihistamine, which you can buy without a prescription.
A ginger supplement combined with ginger snaps, ginger ale or candied ginger might help curb nausea. Eat lightly. Some people find that nibbling on plain crackers and sipping cold water or a carbonated drink without caffeine help.
