Suggest Treatment For Motion Sickness
I get motion sickness and my husband just planned a cruise for me as a anniversary gift. I thought to take bonine or get a motion sickness patch but didn t know which was best or if they are comparible. My concern was I had a recent procedure where I was given the patch and the anesthesiologist seemed very upset over using it. He made comments on how he hates to use it and requested I remove it as soon as able. So I was afraid there as a reason why I wouldn t want to wear them over 5-6 day period. For this reason I was considering just using bonine. Any suggestions?

Thank you for asking!
There is no harm in symptomatically managing the motion sickness but it is not advised during anesthesia or surgery for effects boosting and potentiation of anesthesia drugs. Just simple prokinetics and antivert would suffice and make you survive the cruise.Have a good time with your husband.
take care
