Motion Sickness Medicine

[vboesen]

Hello Experts!

Does anyone out there know if any of the motion sickness meds over the counter interfer with Coumadin? We will be going to the coast (lot's of curvy roads) and Lexi tends to get sick in the car.

Thanks for your input!

what is the pill made up of? If we know it's chemical name, maybe we can say more. It's maybe dramamine. If so, you can go on the net and search for dramamine and find what it might interact with. Just go to Google or Ask Jeeves and type in dramamine, then take your choice or look at many of the pages that come up and you may find what you need. Isn't dramamine an antihistamine?

MANY sources of information should be available.

On-line as already suggested

Your PHARMACIST (maybe the BEST source)

Your/His Anti-Coagulation Manager (Nurse, Dr., Pharmacist)

Information Sheet that comes with the drug
(you may need to ask the pharmacist for this)

After you find out, LET US KNOW :D

Good Luck with your quest.

I don't think the motion sickness drug will cause a problem. If vomiting occurs then that can be a problem.
