Re: Prevention?? Is there anything you can take?
I don't know of anything preventative, but once you start feeling nauseated, take Pepto-Bismol and have Gravol/Dramamine ready. Pepto-Bismol is strong enough at suppressing the vomiting center in the brain that it can counteract a small dose of syrup of ipecac. Gravol/Dramamine can not only prevent vomiting from motion sickness but from ordinary illness too.
I keep Gravol suppositories on hand in case I ever have a really bad nausea that means my stomach has stopped digesting (in which case a pill would be useless.) I've never used the suppositories.
