Question:
Leaving on the 20th on our first cruise and was wondering what advice anyone
has to prevent getting sea sick. Is there any over the counter medicine
that is effective?
Answer:
starting with the morning that I leave for the airport to get to
the ship, and ending on t elast morning of the cruise (I get sick on
planes too).
Prevention is the best medicine - easier to avoid seasickness than it is
to get rid of it once you're afflicted.
>Great for amusement park rides!!!!
Most definitely. Already have my stock of little pink pills ready and
waiting for my Disney vacation in November. Even helps on those
motion-simulator rides.
Bonine is EXTREMELY effective, and doesn't make you very drowsy like
dramamine. Take one or two tablets, taken once a day. It's sold over
the counter.
The one thing you must understand though... it prevents, it doesn't cure
once it's too late. You must take it before you sail. We take one
tablet every morning at breakfast, beginning the day we sail. It even
works on airline flights with turbulence.
