I want to go on a trip that will include flying. I have suffered with motion sickness all my life but do well with Bonine. What will happen if I take Bonine while on the patch? ## Hello, Mag! How are you? I didn't find any interactions or problems listed between these two medications, but it's always best to double check such information to be certain. The Bonine may cause you to experience more side effects than usual, so you may feel more dizzy and drowsy than you usually do on the Exelon alone. Is there anything else I can help with?

My hubby and I just came back from a 5-day cruise. He started taking Bonine the day we got back. It has not been working. It has been two days. Is there anything else we can try? Would a doctor be able to prescribe something stronger? ## Why did he start it after you got back? If you suffer motion sickness, prevention is usually the best option, so medications like this should be taken before the symptoms occur. Learn more Bonine details here. And yes, depending on his symptoms and the severity, a doctor may be able to prescribe something that will help more.

just took Bonine for the first time and i feel nautious. wondering if it is an initial effect of Bonine, or maybe because i drank some coffee not too long ago. plus i am getting on a plane and might be a bit nervous. can anybody else share their experiences with Bonine or Dramamine? ## Bonine contains the active ingredient Meclizine, and Dramamine contains the active ingredient Dimenhydrinate, both are used to help treat, or prevent nausea, vomiting, and vertigo. Ref: Bonine Information Ref: Dramamine Information The FDA lists their typical side effects as possibly including dry mouth, dizziness, drowsiness, and sedation. My best guess is that nausea is due to the coffee, and nerves, rather than the Bonine. Additionally, if you just took it, you wouldn't be feeling the side effects ...

I need the best over the counter meds available as an alternative to hydroxyzine hcl. They say zyrtec, benadryl & bonine are good substitutes? Plz verify. Are there any others? I'm looking for a calming effect. ## The most calming of those choices would be the Benadryl, which is also available as a generic, but you should only take it if your doctor agrees that it is safe for you. It can also cause drowsiness and dizziness as a side effect, according to NIH reports. Is there anything else I can help with?

BONN imprint round blue pill plz id this pill ## Hi J, Based on your description, the closest match I'm finding here is a 25mg Bonine (meclizine) tablet, used for treating symptoms of motion sickness (nausea, vomiting, etc). This pill is round and pink, marked with BON | INE on one side and 201 on the other (the line down the center denotes that it's scored). Because the description is somewhat similar, part of me questions whether they could be made by the same manufacturer (Insight Pharmaceuticals/Prestige Brands)... That may be a long shot, but if you want to delve into a deeper investigation, I'd encourage you to contact them directly at prestigebrands.com/contact.html, to see if it's something they make. Hope that helps! Does anyone else recognize this pill?

I was taking a drugstore brand of meclizine, 25 mg non-chewable tablets. It worked great to control my nausea. When I ran out of the non-chewable tablets, I bought chewable Bonine. To my dismay, almost immediately after chewing the Bonine I became nauseated, and the nausea lasted almost 24 hours. To make sure it was not a fluke, I took chewable Bonine the next day and had the same reaction. Then I switched back to the non-chewable tablets and got relief from my nausea. Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone know why the chewable form of meclizine might cause nausea when the non-chewable form does not? If I swallowed the Bonine tablets instead of chewing them, would I still get nauseated? (I haven't tried this yet.) ## 12 hours after I took the chewable fom of Bonine I also be...
