For Nausea/Vomiting "I used it originally for food allergies but ended up puking (expected, to be honest). Not long after, I took another to wave off the extra symptoms like nausea. All it did was induce vomiting again."

For Nausea/Vomiting "I took a single pill of Benadryl, and it made me vomit, nauseous, diarrhea, dry throat, and gave me a stuffy nose. I wouldn't give this to my worst enemy."

For Extrapyramidal Reaction "Works really well for my akathisia and sometimes dystonia. It has similar effectiveness to benztropine/procyclidine while having minimal side effects."
