I will second the warning about the side effects often experienced with using the patch. Its just impossible to tell anyone if they will experience this or not. If you are among the unfortunate ones who do experience these side effects, they are in some cases worse than the motion sickness they are intended to prevent. The patch requires a presciption (I believe?) whereas the Bonine is OTC. We took 2 remedies/preventatives last time we cruised, Bonine and SeaBands. The Bonine worked fine and we never needed to use the SeaBands. I suggest you research the options and try to choose one (or better yet, two) that seem to be best suited for you. Keep in mind, all medicines (Bonine, patch, etc) will bare warnings on alcohol consumption. Only the wrist bands will allow you to drink as much alcohol as you wish.
