Hello XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing to us.
Typically, warfarin is drug that has a lot of drug interactions( 194 major drugs which interact with warfarin). The drugs for sea sickness are Dimenhydrinate,Meclizine and scopolamine . There is no literature which supports an interaction between these 2 drugs. However, since these are prescription drugs, I would suggest you go and see your physician to get a prescription.
Hope I answered your question.
