Celebrity's Seasickness Piles

[dazey]

When needed I go to the desk to request a packet or two of Celebrity's seasickness pills.  Does anyone recall what they are so I can purchase a few before the cruise and not wait in line at the customer relations desk?  I also know they work for me with no side effects.

I believe it is meclizine 25 mg.

Thank you.  Ordered from Amazon just now. Will have to cruise a lot to use them all.

Seasickness and piles ?

Some people just can't catch a break ! 🤣

I picked up a package of Motion Sickness pills at CVS yesterday. Meclizine Hydrochloride, less drowsy formula.  Since we're doing a transatlantic and heading through the Gulf of Biscay, I thought I would be prepared.

If the formula works for you, the cheapest can be found at Walmart

I just saw the subject I wrote for this question. I wondered where the "piles" jokes came from.  Sorry for the spelling error but maybe it added to my question.

 

Thanks for all the info everyone.  CC members never fail when info is needed.

I have a daughter in her 40's who gets seasick , car and train , etc. . She gets headaches and very spaced out. Finally found they answer!!!

 A small herbal tablet that goes under the tongue. Taken the night before the motion and then the day off. For the first time in her life she can ride in the back seat of a car!  . COCCULINE made by Boiron out of Quebec.

This is NOT the same medication.  This is dimenhydrinate, which is also known as Dramamine - it works well but generally causes more drowsiness.

 

The other medication is Meclizine, which is also known as Dramamine Less Drowsy formula, and Bonine.

I actually get mine at Costco, if you have a membership.  A pack of 100 is something like $3.95.   I realize it's not much difference, but every penny counts!

They keep it by the pharmacy, so you have to ask for it, but it does not require a prescription.  

 

Edit:  I just realized that this is not the meclizine, which is the ingredient in Bonine and was what I was referring to.   That's what I get at Costco and is helpful for me

As stated I did say if this formula works for you; different people may prefer different formulas

The medicine is meclizine and the cheapest place to get it is Walmart.  They have two kinds so make sure to pick meclizine.  The other kind works but makes you much more drowsy and you have to take it more often.

Thought that was a bit odd....

Ginger works pretty well too.

It comes raw, in chews/gummies, or in capsules (Dramamine has a version).

A nice can of sardines soaked in oil will help for both seasickness and piles. 🤪

I have gotten from guest relations a few times and worked very quickly.  Fortunately Did not need them often.

I got this one instead of meclizine by mistake so I don’t use it on cruises because it puts me to sleep. It worked great for a cross country drive though. I slept for hours! 😂

Have used the Dramamine  ginger version (non-drowsey) in the past on ocean fishing charters in Alaska. We also bring a box of Gingersnaps with us. Does the trick.
