I get seasick.  I usually take Dramamine but that usually doesn't work very well.  Even though I don't actually puke when I use it, I still feel naseous.  Does anyone know of anything that actually works?

I used to have it a lot.  I washed my hands ALL the time and took like 3 or 4 baths a day.  Couldn't eat anything that I didn't feel was clean enough, ended up crying all the time because I thought I was going to die of some weird sickness...had it for a long time but never took any medication for it.  Eventually it went away on its own.

The reason?  It's the sugar.  Have you ever had Emitrol?  It's an anti-nausea syrup you can buy at the store.  The sugar count in that is tremendous.  It's the sugar that settles your stomach.  You're supposed to even beat the bubbles out of ginger ale or coke so it doesn't bounce right back up.  You can also buy Coca-Cola Syrup in the drug store.  Just ask for it at the pharmacy.  Just pure syrup--no carbonation.  That will work too.

Gargle with salt water,they say that helps, but I have found just sucking on a pepermint helps with the cough and throat.I bought some of that Tylenol Cool Burst,its a liquid,and it feels so good going down....also help you sleep.I hope you get to feeling better soon..I hate being sick too.

Gravol always worked for me.  Also, try to ride in the front seat and don't ever ride facing backwards.  Pull over before you vomit and use the ditch instead.

yeah, I was gonna say salt water, hot as well. Yucky, I know. I also say listerine.sp. I know thats yucky too. But when I have a sore throat, I don't care... I just want to make it feel better. Actually, you might want to go see a doctor if you have insurance. Could have strep or somthing else??? Thats kind of a long time to be dealing with this. Also try motren....   :)   get better poor thing.

I took it but did not get that reaction at all.  Instead, I felt a little weird in the head and kinda shaky.  I stopped taking them because after a few days, it started upsetting my stomach and causing me to have painful BM.  (IF anything, I had more energy).\n\nEveryone reacts differently to medications.  Report your symptoms to your doctor (make sure the doctor gets the info and not the nurse).  You can also go on Medline and type Mobic and it should give you the side effects.  It is a very good anti-inflammatory but does not work for everyone.

Don't use a laxative...they will usually give you cramps.  Try Metamucil.  The orange flavor is not so bad and usually works in about 1/2 hour or so.  Take it tomorrow too just to keep things moving.

People all seem to say laxatives are bad. Of course people are always fearful of what they have not tried. I have had a far different experience. I set aside one weekend a month to cleanse my system and it seems to help a great deal. I take two Bisacodyl suppositories and drink four ounces of Castor oil. It is best to take the Castor oil in juice. I just swallow it in one big gulp so I don't have to taste it. This will cause multiple bowel movements. After the first few I take six bisacodyl pills. Be sure to drink at least 8 to 10 ounces of water or more every hour as you will lose fluids in the clean out process. You will go to the bathroom until what comes out is clear. There will be some cramping. But nothing intolerable. After you are all cleaned out eat very lightly for the next few days and include yogurt to put a good flora back in your colon. I know that many will disagree with this method but it works great for me!!! I have done this once a month for over 10 years with great results and far better health!!!

If it's just car sickness try Dramamine or ginger tablets.  The combination has worked well for my husband.  There is also Sea Band which is a wrist band that presses on a pulse point to get rid of motion sickness (Sea Band).  It worked for my nephew.\n\nAlso check the link below.  You could also do a search on WebMD.\n\nI'm concerned that it may be something else though, since you get the headache with it.  As far as I know, usually people just complain of nausea and vomitting with motion sickness.\n\nGood luck!

I have tried several over the past few years and none have really worked.  Rigt now im on topamax (which is normally used for migranes) but is used in bipoloar also, along with a small dose of paxil.  The side effects were really bad the first two weeks(bad headaches, ringing in the ears, tingling in the tips of fingers and toes, no soda at all - any carbonated beverages taste like blood, but have since gone away, (except for the carbonation thing) and I actually do feel pretty good now.  And topamax, is also used as a weight loss pill too!! BONUS!!  (they say topamax is similar to depakote without the weight gain)

Do you have allergies?  Most people I know get stuffed up and sneeze.  I get "foggy" and dizzy.  My daily vitamin is an allergy pill containing pseudoephedrine.  When I don't take one, I get sick to my stomach; my memory is shot, and I have a horrible time concentrating.\n\nMy work doctor figured this out for me a few years ago after visits with the Emergency room and my family doctor and useless vertigo pills.  If your doctor isn't sure how to tell, my work doctor had me look to one side, and then to the other side.  When I did, my eyes quivered as if they were trying to focus and couldn't.  Looking straight ahead didn't seem to be different.  Hope this helps ya!

Ginger Ale and Ginger Snaps are better that sprite and salitines...there is something with ginger that is soothing i guess? Also, anyway that you can relax cause when your stomach hurts you tend to tense up which makes it worse...try taking a bath to relax and loosen up. Hope something works!

It helps me. I don't take it all the time though. I take ativan. I itch when I get really anxious and the vistoril stops the itching..Really good for nausea

Try some Mylanta or Milk of Magnesia - those old people are on to something! That'll usually kill a stomach ache real quick.

Everyone reacts to drugs different.  I don't react to anything that makes your average person sleepy or tired.  So it doesn't matter to me at all.  I do notice that things start to wear off differently.  Do what your doctor told you to do at first and if you experience weird side effects for more than a couple weeks then think about changing things up.  I found that changing my diet really helped me IBS.  It was terrible for a long time and I thought that my diet wasn't really that bad.  Then I moved to Germany and couldn't go out much to eat.  So I started cooking more quality food.  It has really helped.  Also the amount of different types of foods sometimes makes a difference. Good luck.
