Hi:
I will be traveling to the Bahamas in April and I will be doing a couple of Excursions that involves boats (e.g. Power boat tour, Glass Bottom Boat Ride) And I was wondering if the non-drowsy formula of Dramamine helps to prevent Sea Sickness? Does anybody have any other remedies that they know works (besides the patch)?

I suspect even the non-drowsy formula of Dramamine will make you feel, well, just not yourself. Go to a healthfood store and grab some Ginger capsules. On mythbusters it was just as effective as the drug and no side effects. It's also good for morning sickness

Over the counter, any drug store: Dramamine. Take a couple of hours before you head out. Yes, smaller boats can make you sea sick.

Dramomine or Avomine shd do the trick--i throw up regardless of whether its a jaguar--or a ship or a bus or long distance car travel--and only this clears my head--course it puts me to sleep but when i wake up i m refreshed--when u throw up all the way to ur destination its awful and i end up sleeping the rest of the journey even if its for a week--and i dunno what hit me-infact i wont even no if they r giving me cyanide--i take it as long as i m being fed--its that bad when u throw up
