    Default Medication

    I have a question. Do any of you take medication to prevent you from getting sick when you feel nauseated? If so, what is it and what are the side effects?

    I take Promethazine and Mirtazapine.

    Promethazine has many side effects, but the high instance side effects are Dry Mouth, Somnolence (sleepiness), Constipation... for at least what I remember. For me, it has an 80% chance of removing nausea that is light; 70% chance of removing moderate nausea that is already onset and a horrid 25% working effort when severe nausea is onset. It works WONDERS preventing it though.

    Mirtazapine can act like an anti-emetic, but I don't see it working for me.
