For Nausea/Vomiting "I took these cyclizine when I had been feeling sick for around 7 days and haven’t eaten. I lost so much weight, and my doctor gave me these. The first time taking them, I didn’t feel sick, but I was so sleepy and managed to sleep the whole day. I also had weird dreams and woke up seeing shapes around the room. I’m on the 6th day of taking them, and I still get spells of feeling like I’m going to throw up. I also get constipated or lose bowels :( not pleasant."

For Nausea/Vomiting "I have morning sickness, vomiting (pregnancy), etc. My doctor gave me this medication. It works straight away, but I had side effects. I had a dry mouth and had to drink a lot of mineral water. I had constipation. After I took the tablet, my body was shaking, I felt cold, and I couldn't concentrate on anything. I felt weak for the first hour. I felt better later, and my stomach didn't upset me anymore. I noticed that 50 mg was too big a dose for me, and I was taking just half of the tablet. It didn't last long, but I had less of the side effects. Overall, it was a big help, and this medicine helped me a lot and stopped me from feeling bad and vomiting. I am not sure it is safe for my baby, but it helped me stay alive during the first 12 weeks of my pregnancy."

For Nausea/Vomiting "I have used this cyclizine a few times. The first time was in the hospital during a bout of Clostridium difficile, it really worked and took the nausea away. I have since had gastro problems and have been using this again, it works after an hour or so and tends to last a few hours. This time around, I have experienced a few side effects: constipated in the evening and I had vision problems too. I will be speaking to my doctor to see what he says."
