non-drowsy medication for car sickness?
My friends and I are planning to take a 10 hour road trip, but I'm not so sure I can survive in a car that long. I really want to go, but I get the worst car sickness. I've used dramamine (spelling?) before, but it makes me drowsy. I really don't want to be half out of it for our trip because we are going to be stopping places along the way and site seeing. Does anyone know of any other kinds of medications or anything I can do about my car sickness?
Someone I know mentioned some kind of bracelet that hits a pressure point on your wrist, and this is supposed to prevent motion sickness. I'm not too sure that I believe that, and I'm not about to try it out and wind up getting very sick for the whole trip.

Ginger is a natural anti-nausea cure. It is available in pill form from Blackmoors called Travel Calm. It works. The pharmacist that recommended it suffers from seasickness, but now uses them before going out in her husband's boat. And my daughter who gets travel sickness, flew without feeling sick, using them. We used to use Dramamine too, but it makes her too sleepy, and the flight wasn't that long, that she could sleep it off.

There is a product that is a wrist band. I think they are called Sea bands. They work really well.

HI Don't read, that is the main culprit, eating ginger candy can help.
