I get motion sickness very easily...can't even read as a passenger in a car or sometimes even turn sideways. I start taking Bonine (1 tab) a few hours before sailaway. I take one or two a day for the first few days and then sometimes don't take it at all the last few days. I take more if the sea is rough in any form and also if I have to tender in to port. Sometimes it makes me a little tired but I'd rather that then be seasick. As someone stated, it is much easier to prevent than to get rid of. I have a friend who takes lots of meds so she can't do the Bonine. She had great luck with the ginger. Also heard good things about the wrist bands. You can't go wrong if you go prepared. Have a great time!!
