A member asked:

How many gravol pills can i take to fall asleep?

Dr. Andrew Seibert answered

Specializes in Gastroenterology

Dimenhydrinate: Dimenhydrinate, the generic medication that is in Gravol and Dramamine, can indeed make some people drowsy. You should never exceed the number of tablets indicated on the packaging. For most people this is not a very effective sedative. Good luck.
