travel pills

[claybury]

can anyone recommend a travel sick pill , mainly for sea use. tried one but not very effective, many thanks

Forget the pills. Crystallized ginger (from any health food shop) works far better.

(PS: If you insist on taking pills - or if you just can't stand ginger! - speak to the pharmacist at your local chemist's shop. He/she will know far more about what's currently available than anyone else, including your GP).

Avomine

I do not get a good result from tablets.However I use accupressure bands and they are brilliant.

Agree with goldfish1, Avomine every time. It took me across the Bay of Biscay in really rough seas!

Last time I crossed the Irish Sea and didn't feed the fish was 'cos I wore Sea Bands on my wrists (like sense4all suggests). You may look a prat if you have short sleeves but it's better than spraying the deck with diced carrots.

I can get travel sick everythwere, including the Channel Tunnel but find a split of champagne, or other really sparkling wine, sipped very slowly, keeps everything where it ought to be. Will now try the crystalized ginger - it's cheaper !

I get travel sick everywhere, even the Channel Tunnel but a split of champagne, sipped very slowly when needed, keeps everything where it ought to be ! will now try the crystalized ginger - it's a lot cheaper !!
