It worked well I wasnt feeling nauseated and everything was normal. The is the regular dramamine not the less drowsy. But the thing is i needed about 4 of them. Then about 3 months ago I was reintroduced to them. But I learned that kids were using them to keep their high rolling. && I also learned that when taking a bunch of them it is a source for kids to get high. So be careful with the way you use...

I don't even realize I'm wearing them, unless I look at them. They are not very attractive, but on the other hand, nobody has noticed them. I recommend having two sets of bands. One for your dry time. And another pair when you take a shower or give your kids a...

This product is great because you don't have to take it before you get motion sick, you can take it once you are feeling sick and it still works. I had it in my travel bag and one night on the cruise began to feel the rocking of the boat and the motion sickness set in. Instead of ruining my night, I took one of these tiny pills, sat for a few minutes and I was all set for the rest of the evening. My brother in law takes it every time he's in the car with my father. It doesn't have the best taste but I'll say it's better than a pepto and since the pill is so small, the flavor goes away quickly. It's a great staple to have when travelling, just in case....

It is not a miracle bracelet but it did take the edge off. Used this for planes, trains and long travel as well as on a cruise. I would recommend this bracelet as it is all natural without taking any medication. Does not make you sleepy at all and can be used for long periods. Actually told everyone on the cruise that it was a new fashion...

This is not possible on a plane or a boat, so many  times I will resort to taking Dramamine. The deciding factor is how long of a trip it is. If the trip is not longer that 4 hours it is not a great idea for me. It makes me sooooo drowsy that I have missed flights or left the plane without my baggage on connecting flights. —  It is effective as a motion sickness pill, so I can't nock it. —...

I bought these motion sickness bands figuring they couldn't hurt and they didn't. I never got sick at all even during a very severe storm that had that ship rocking and thrashing. But was it the bracelets? I have no idea but I will wear them again just for prevention's sake.About Sea Bands — These stretchy grey bracelets have a plastic bump that should be positioned on the underside of the wrist. Apparently, this bump puts constant pressure of your "P6 pressure point" and keeps sickness at bay. I didn't care about any of that. I just didn't want to spend my whole cruise to the Bahamas in bed sick. Ironically several people I went with did. I never felt a bit of motion or sea sickness. I wore the bands the entire tine. The bump was pressing on my wrist all the time but it didn't hurt and I didn't notice it. I wasn't thrilled with the fashion statement the ugly grey band made but it was...

Also sold as a generic and known as both Antivert (RX) and Dramamine Less Drowsy. Meclizine is an antihistamine. It works for dizziness, as a sleep aid, to relieve nausea, helps with anxiety attacks, etc. It is a very versatile product, and it works very...

One of the few issues with him has been motion sickness. When he was little, he would toss his cookies within 10 miles or so. We live 12 miles for "town," so even a trip to the grocery meant a pit stop. — We were on the road a lot when the little guy was younger. I lived in Raleigh and made road trips back home and also to see the Virginia clan. Often, we'd arrive with a real mess. I remember one time when we were on a stretch of highway where we couldn't pull off. The little guy vomited all over himself and the car seat. His older brother said, "Good grief. Next time I'm taking the bus." He was only four years old. The baby with the stomach problems was 2 yrs. — Once the little guy got to 2 yrs, he could take Dramamine (per his doctor's OK). That really was a blessing. I can't begin to describe how awful it is to travel after someone has upchuked in the car. — The Dramamine did do the trick. It kept his...

I thought it would be a smart idea to take something in case the vertigo and motion combined to make me feel sick. — I didn't want to get tired so I bought Dramamine Tablets Less Drowsy 8 Each. This is just a little plastic tube with eight yellow pills in it for your purse or glove box. — I didn't get sick but, if these are LESS DROWSY, what are the regular ones? I never fall asleep in the car but I was out like a light after taking one of these and I could barely shake off the effects. — What Dramamine is — These pills are nothing more than antihistamines. Each contain 25 mg of Meclizine Hydrochloride which, ironically, I have in a bottle at home. They were prescribed for me for the vertigo. This medication helps nausea and dizziness associated with motion, whether it is real or due to an imbalance of some sort. — I rarely...

I also can get a queasy feeling on airplanes. I asked my doctor what motion sickness pill he would recommend for me. Dramamine is the one that everyone knows. He recommended Bonine. I’ve been taking it for years. — I always buy the package of 16 for about $7.00. You can buy a package of 8 but the expiration dates are really good. The box I have now expires in May 2008. — I like Bonine because I can chew them. I can’t say they taste like raspberries but they taste good. — One or two should be taken an hour before travel for adults and children over 12. We are told on the package that this works “up to 4 times longer and causes less drowsiness than Original Dramamine.” — I’ll tell you how I take it. Since I am on other medication that can make me sleepy I only take ½. I find that Bonine works fine this way. For example on our cruise last winter every morning I would chew...
