What to do if i have vertigo and plan to go out pn a day/ or night cruise. appx a 6-8 hour sail. what precautions do i need to take?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Some approaches: Either OTC meclizine or dramamine (dimenhydrinate) might help, but both cause drowsiness. A scopolamine patch has been helpful in some. There are bracelet-like devices with buttons that press on wrists, which many swear to. Hope some of this helps.
