For Nausea/Vomiting "For me, it works miracles. When I used to drink, I'd get the worst hangovers because of the horrible stomach ache and vomiting. If I take this, I know in one hour exactly (it literally takes exactly 60 minutes for me), I will feel better and not even a little nauseous. I also get nasty random bouts of nausea (I have no idea why). Before knowing about Dramamine, I'd have to force myself to vomit just to feel a little bit of relief, but after finding this stuff, I no longer suffer. I do not know what I will do if this medicine is ever discontinued."

For Motion Sickness "I have been seriously dizzy since Jan 2018. Dramamine restores me, so I can work and live. The only problem is I take quite a few tabs a day. But for three and a half months, I can't handle the dizziness! Dramamine took away my dizzy spells, nausea, and vomiting! I feel human again."

For Nausea/Vomiting "In college, I had a bad reaction to a medication and spent the entire day in bed and throwing up until my roommate gave me Dramamine, and it completely took away the vomiting and helped me go to sleep."

For Motion Sickness "I use this for both motion sickness and severe migraines. I'm 25 years old, and this actually takes away the hurt from noise, light, touch, and yes, dizziness and vomiting. I can actually move and participate with my family this Christmas. Rarely do I mix it, if anything, I just take the max dosage recommended."

For Nausea/Vomiting "Although it does not take all of the nausea away, it takes it away enough to avoid vomiting when the stomach bug is running its course. Although not indicated for gastroenteritis (aka 'stomach flu'), I have used it on many occasions as I own a business; and any day not at work is lost income. I also give it to my children when they are feeling ill enough to vomit. Note: Bonine (meclizine) and 'Less-Drowsy Dramamine' (meclizine), which are also motion sickness medicines, work even pretty well, but not as well in my opinion for nausea caused by actual sickness."

For Nausea/Vomiting "My doctor advised taking Dramamine after he gave me medicine to treat my problems - not motion sickness - and I experienced nausea and some vomiting from the medicine. I had tried various things that just seemed to make it worse, but this helps. Now I can take the medicine I need and still be comfortable."

For Nausea/Vomiting "We always use Dramamine for car sickness, but my youngest came down with a tummy bug. She refused to take it in, but the moment my stomach started to feel off, I took a 24 Dramamine, and wow! I used to take Zofran for migraines, and this worked just as well. Although, had I not taken it before my stomach got too upset, I’m not sure I could have kept it down. Needless to say, I had to use it for two days. My stomach was definitely upset, but this was keeping nausea at bay, and I managed to stop all the vomiting. Thank goodness!"

For Nausea/Vomiting "I’m taking the Dramamine-N for dizziness, which was then causing nausea and vomiting not related to travel at all, and within about one half hour, I’m feeling good! Highly recommend for this problem."

For Nausea/Vomiting "First morning I wake up in Mexico, and I have this urge to throw up, and I do so right outside my room. Two hours go by, and I’m still feeling super nauseous. I run down to the store in my resort, and I was recommended Dramamine (which was also like $20). Honestly, it made me throw up even more; a lot more. But I will say that it made me feel better after getting all the vomit out, so I guess it kind of worked? I still feel a little nauseous; hopefully, it goes away in a bit."
