How many of you carry an anti-emet kit with you? Here's a picture of mine. It looks like a lot of stuff but I manage to squeeze all of this into an Altoid container and hold it together with a rubber band.



Shoved inside the lid are two tablets of Meclizine a.k.a. Bonine, an over-the-counter anti-emetic marketed for motion sickness.

The green wrappers are a taffy like ginger candy called Ginger Chews. The candy has a vibrant ginger bite to them and I bite off small bits at a time and suck on them. Ginger Chews are available in many health food stores or on the company's website (www.gingerpeople.com).
On top of the Altoids are two Pepto Bismol tablets which help heartburn and bloating as well as nausea.

The clear bag has 4 ginger capsules, 1 enteric-coated peppermint capsule (taken 15-20 minutes before eating), 4 cinnamon capsules and the two pink capsules are Charcocaps - a homeopathic remedy for gas and bloating. After squeezing all of that inside, I hold it together with a rubber band.

I guess you can tell I have nothing else to do on this rainy Sunday afternoon.
