How Do You Prevent Motion Sickness?

Travel Info
I'm actually asking for a friend. She and her husband get motion sickness. Is there a way to prevent it?

Travel Tips

There are several things they can do. First of all, eating dry salty food like crackers or pretzels will help. Ginger is good too. I will keep ginger snaps with me. If you watch the horizon that helps. Dont read or keep your eyes down. There are wrist bands that are supposed to help that you can get in drug stores. Non-drowsy dramamine is helpful. If none of these things work there is a scopalomine patch that your doctor can prescribe. They work great! Source(s): I am a birder and do deep sea pelagic trips. I get seasick all the time, which is the same thing.

Although it wasn't motion sickness for me, I got those Sea Band wristbands when I was pregnant, and they helped a great deal in bringing my nausea down to a reasonable level. They have plastic buttons that hit a pressure point in your wrist to inhibit nausea in some people.

You can eat sth which contains ginger. Another way-try not to look through the window if you're not sitting next to the driver. Its the best way to see the horizon before you not on your left or right side. The motion without moving(your legs) affects your brain and causes labyrinthine disfunction.
