To whoever knows anything about this.


I am making an appt with therapist in a few weeks.What I want to know is what is the best medication that any one knows of to prevent nausea and v*** that I can be prescribed? I don't know much about any kinds of meds for emet. Can anyone shed some light on what is the best meds? for emet.

An over-the-counter med I use is Gravol. I probably abuse it, I
take it so much. It's good because it's a muscle relaxant, so if
you're anxious about v* then it will help to calm you down.



I can make you very sleepy though so don't' use it while driving.
And I only take a quarter of a tablet every time. I don't know
what a whole one would do to me! For mild nausea and heartburn,
Pepto-Bismol can be good and it won't make you tired.



Hope this helps!

My phycologist told me there isnt anything you can take for this disorder & that its dangerous to avoid V* if you have a poison inside of u.

as long as you don't make a habit of going around swallowing poison, I think we're pretty safe.

Well like lady21, I also take gravol and absuse it as well. I take it in halves of a tablet but sometimes use a whole. There is also gravol that is an anti-drowseness, so your safe taking that while your driving. I would defiantly talk to a pharmasycist at a local drug store to see whats best for you.

I take stemetil, which can be used to actually stop v*ing if u take enough!! But i use it when i have bad nausea and it takes it away. I think that if u were poisoned or something no medication would stop u v*ing??? If it was that bad>???? most anti-nausea meds are to stop nausea not v*ing, so they are very safe. Ive tried a few though so talk to your doctor and they will find one that is suitable for u, and most of them have no side affects.

My doctor prescribed something called Atarax. I've only taken it once so far but it seemed to work. It's an antihistamine but it also is an anti anxiety medication. So it calmed me and helped with the nausea. Hopefully I don't jinx it. *knocks on wood*
