Motion Sickness Can Ruin a Vacation?

Many people suffer from different forms of motion sickness. Most of them get sick while on a boat or a ship. The rolling to and fro motion upsets the equilibrium of the inner ear and causes nausea, vomiting, sweating and even dizziness. This feeling won’t go away until the motion is over. Unfortunately, on a ship, it may not be over until the person gets on dry land. There are also those who get motion sickness while simply riding in a car, bus or any other vehicle. The motion of a plane can also bring on sickness in some people. This motion sickness can spoil a vacation and can even keep people from taking a vacation. But there are ways to prevent this from happening. One very well-known and popular way are the medications for motion sickness. These can be purchased over the counter at any drug store and can be very effective in preventing the sickness. However, these medicines usually only work for short trips or for those who only suffer with a mild form of motion sickness. If a cruise, car or plane trip is coming up in the future, the physician can prescribe a stronger medication to avoid a more severe motion sickness. One of the medications is a patch. The medicine in the patch is scopolamine that is more effective in preventing motion sickness. This patch is a small disc that is applied to the area behind the ear. One disc will last for three days and then a new one is needed. However, this medicine can come with side effects. The most common side effect is drowsiness. Other side effects may include dry mouth, blurred vision and dilation of pupils. There are more natural ways to avoid motion sickness without using a medication. Before taking a trip it would be smart to avoid alcohol, heavy and spicy foods or anything that doesn’t agree with you. On a car trip sit in the front seat. If possible, get a seat in the center of an airplane. On a cruise, get a cabin near the middle of the ship in the lower level. Avoid reading while in motion. If a medication is needed, be sure to discuss any problems that may occur with your physician.


Can you wear a scopolamine patch while you sleep?

Yes, you can wear a scopolamine patch while you sleep. The patch is designed to be worn continuously for up to three days, providing a steady release of medication to help prevent nausea and motion sickness. However, it's important to follow your healthcare provider's instructions regarding usage and to ensure that it is placed correctly on clean, dry skin. Always consult your doctor if you have concerns or experience any side effects.
