1st drink a lot of hot beverage befor travelling like ginger
2nd you can take draminex ( diphenhydramine) or hyosine befor travelling by 1/2 hour
3rd if you arent become good you must go to ENT specialist ( otologist)

Try accupressure. Placing manual pressure on the Neiguan or Pericardium-6 acupuncture point (located about three finger-widths above the wrist on the inner arm), either by acupuncture, acupressure, or a mild, electrical pulse, has shown to be effective against the symptoms of motion sickness. Elastic wristbands sold at most drugstores are also used as a source of relief due to the pressure they place in this area. Pressing the small intestine 17 (just below the earlobes in the indentations behind the jawbone) may also help in the functioning of the ear's balancing mechanism. All the best :)

Motion sickness means your inner ear is not working properly. The inner ear controls your equlibrium. You may have an ear infection or fluid in your inner ear and should see a doctor. Some motion sickness medicine will make you sleepy, so be careful what you take if you are driving.

Take avomine on an empty stomach before you start travelling. Don't eat anything. Don't look outside the window of the bus/car. Keep your head down, as much as possible. Or keep your eyes closed, as much as possible.

See your doc for prescription meds. Have you tried over the counter ones like bonine?

Why don't you consult a doctor for help?
