For Nausea/Vomiting "I'm emetophobic (fear of vomiting) and have these pills for any times I get sick or feel really nauseous. They do get rid of the nausea, but they come with a lot of side effects. They make me incredibly drowsy, to the point where I have to sleep. If I fight it, I get this 'high' feeling where I'm disoriented and not fully aware of the passage of time or what's going on around me. I get super dizzy and feel all floaty and strange. The weirdest symptom is every time someone speaks or I hear a loud noise, it feels like my brain has fallen out of my skull or like I've just dropped several feet. They do work to get me to sleep, but if I wake after a few hours, I can still feel the confusion and dizziness side effects."

For Nausea/Vomiting "I was prescribed cyclizine when eight weeks pregnant after two weeks of very bad morning sickness, where I reached the point that I couldn’t keep anything down. I was worried to take it, but it has been very helpful. It kicked in very quickly, for the next few days, I was still sick on odd occasions, but not nearly as much, and after taking it for a week, my diet was almost back to what I was eating pre-pregnancy. I still felt a degree of nausea, but not to the debilitating degree I had before. As described in the instructions, I felt dizzy, my eyes went a bit funny at points, but not for long, and I was just so glad to feel less sick. I am ten weeks now and still suffer occasional bouts of sickness, once every few days, but not nearly as badly."

For Motion Sickness "I suffer from vestibular migraines. The symptoms are dizziness, vertigo, and feeling sensitive to light, and feeling sick. My doctor prescribed me this drug, and my first dose, within an hour, knocked me out. I woke up feeling less dizzy. I so hope this drug works! As I've had this for a long time now, and I suffer from depression from not having a normal life. Please, I so hope this is the drug to cure me…"

For Nausea/Vomiting "I took it, and within an hour, I felt terrible, felt like I was going to pass out, very dizzy, and I couldn't talk. I also had chills and shakes, my family had to ring an ambulance. It was an awful experience. I was like that for nearly two hours. Be very careful with these tablets - it may scare you."

For Nausea/Vomiting "I had nausea, vomiting, and dizziness, suspected to be because of IBS, but not sure. Most days I feel really awful after waking. After taking cyclizine, I feel so much better, a miracle drug for sure!"
