Re: Meds for sickness on a cruise

[Guest guest]

I have extreme motion sickness and can whole heartedly recommend the

prescription

patch you heard about.

The drug is Scopolamine. The brand name of the patch is " Transderm Scop. "

You wear it behind your ear for up to three days. After that, you remove it and

put

another one behind your other ear.

It works great.

I should warn you, however, that I'm too sensitive to it to wear for more than

10 hours. If I

do, I get a horrible headache that totally lays me out.

I use it for airplanes, but I can't tolerate it for long enough to try a cruise.

So, before you buy your cruise tickets, try it out at home first!
