How we treat it at AfterOurs
Prevention helps most: look out the window, sit where motion is less, and avoid reading. A provider can recommend medicine taken before travel, such as a scopolamine patch or an antihistamine, and ginger may help.
When to come in
Talk with a provider before a trip if motion sickness is a problem for you, or come in if nausea lasts after travel.
