Default Re: Dramamine

[
As a first time cruiser who does get motion sickness, I'm going to carry along the less-drowsy Dramamine, and also see about the pressure point bracelets. I figure that the worst case scenario is that I'll have to pay a visit to the ship's doctor![/quote]

Nikle, If you are a fist time cruiser subjdct to moiton sickness, my advice is skip the dramamine. Meclazine (Bonine is far more effective and causes less drowsiness). If you don't encounter rough water you won't need a thing, even if you are prone to motion sickness, but have the Bonine handy just in case you hit a rough spot. Bob Vayage!
