As said before, the vet is your best plan of action, you should never give your animal human meds, but if you do, keep in mind your dog is not a human, meaning the dosage will be way to intense. When my dog had this problem, we would roll the windows down so she could get as much air as possible, consistency is what helped us, short drives 2-5 minutes at a time then increase the time traveled. you have to start small so the animal can get usto it. Good Luck!

Give this a try. Fifteen or twenty minutes before you take the dog in the car give it one or two "ginger snap" cookies. Ginger is very settling to the stomach and the dog thinks it is very special when it gets a human cookie. Give the cookies on an empty stomach so it will not have an upset when it goes for a ride.
Go for a short ride and take the dog for a run. Some dogs get upset because they associate the ride with going to the Vet or other places they fear. Make the ride fun and let the dog play do this a few times and it should start to get better.
I know how the dog feels because as a kid I got car sick and it wasn't pleasant for me or my parents.
Good luck, it will get better.

Get some acepromazine from your vet, and give her a pill 30 minutes before you leave.
