what do you take for nausea

I have meniere's disease which can cause nausea. The recommended Antivert which is an antihistamine seems to be causing my seizures to be worse. The other motion sickness med's also cause a problem. Could someone recommend something for nausea or motion sickness that should not effect seizures? Hopefully someone can help me. Thanks.

Re: what do you take for nausea

Usually, the antihistamines "dry out" your nasal regions. It is a common use for passengers in flights to use the OTC ones.

I'd suggest anything that does the same; that dries out your system (that is food based or natural) but does not have adverse side effects or causes reactions with your meds.

If you can think of any foods, meals, or diets (beverages possibly?) that do that to you, try it as long as those do NOT effect you.

I can't think of naturalpathic or homeopathic remedies off the top of my head. As is the majority don't like those potentials for choices.

Secondary thought, not related to your question, are your ears/inner ear balance all ok? Hearing issues can be attributed to causes of nausea when in motion.

Also impaired vision (how do I clarify this) anything less that normal such as poor functionality or bad eyesight, glaucoma, could also have an effect to the issues of balance and moving objects in the field of view could cause the person to be queasy.

Re: what do you take for nausea

There is one product I would recommend if you're looking for something that's similar to an antihistamine and it's over the counter. Just to be clear, it's not prescribed for nausea, but I take it for a cold to dry me out. If I'm not mistaken, I think that's what you're asking for. I did go back and read the posting rules but I am not clear if it would be a violation if I mentioned it by name here. Travis?

Re: what do you take for nausea

My balance is pretty much gone due to Meniere's. It has also greatly effected my eyesight both making traveling very uncomfortable for me. If it isn't against the posting rules I was hoping someone that had seizures could recommend something they take for nausea that hasn't caused them seizures. Thanks.

Re: what do you take for nausea

So, in essence, you're simply looking for an anti-nausea medication, right?
I haven't taken any, so I'm sorry I can't help you out.
