For Nausea/Vomiting "I had to stop taking my migraine medicine because of a life-threatening side effect. Nothing else touched my migraines. I was desperate because of the nausea and dizziness on top of the unbelievable pain, and took a Dramamine. Not only did it stop the nausea and dizziness, it knocked out my migraine enough that I was able to get out of bed and function - probably from a 10 on the pain scale to a 5. Huge difference!"

For Motion Sickness "I use this for both motion sickness and severe migraines. I'm 25 years old, and this actually takes away the hurt from noise, light, touch, and yes, dizziness and vomiting. I can actually move and participate with my family this Christmas. Rarely do I mix it, if anything, I just take the max dosage recommended."

For Nausea/Vomiting "Went out with my friends on a Saturday night, got home around 3 AM. Had to wake up at 6 AM for work, and I woke up with the spins and felt like throwing up. I continued to feel like this for the remainder of the shift until I saw Dramamine at the gas station on my lunch break. Decided to take 2, and I felt so much better. This brought back my appetite and stopped the spinning/nausea."

For Motion Sickness "I've taken Dramamine a couple of times with good results, however, the other day I took it, and it was a disaster. I usually experience agitation and dizziness while being a passenger in a car, and it usually dulls it, but this time, it made my symptoms substantially worse. I developed sensitivity to light, sound, and even temperature felt more intense, and that was in addition to the agitation and dizziness. Please use with caution."

For Nausea/Vomiting "For me, Dramamine works better than Phenergan. I have a lot of nausea due to rheumatoid medications I take. I also get vertigo or migraines on occasion that cause nausea. This med helps me a lot."
