That's just a ridiculous allegation. Medicating passengers, good grief... I suppose the people who DO get seasick, or get other ailments, and there are those arent there?, are the people where the 'medication' doesn't work?, or are they obstaining from food, or, are they the 'control group'... Geez I know x-files just came out, but give me a break!

Tbelian, I don't think anyone is making an allegation, certainly not me. I was just putting out a question if anyone had heard or read anything. As far as the experience my wife and I had it was to my knowledge isloated to us. No x-files intended here.

Lisa, what you and Kitty9 say may be true and I suspect that's the case. On our last cruise thru the Panama Canal, my wife and I felt like we were taking Bismuth Subsalicylate (ie Pepto Bismo, Kaopectate etc) starting a day after were started the cruise and ending 2 days afterwords. We felt fine the entire cruise and the food as usual was delicious. We were just curious if any others had seen or heard anything. Like Kitty9 said, I can't believe a public cruise ship would use anything like that to keep down stomach viruses, but they do use herbs, spices and the like to season the foods we eat. Thanks for the feedback.

Does anyone know if the cruise line treats the food with additives that help suppress stomach disorders and the such? I've not seen any disclosures to that effect but feel it should be if that is the case.
