A member asked:

Currently on 500mg of amoxicillin. will that affect dramamine (dimenhydrinate) from working properly for severe motion sickness?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Motion sickness: Amoxacillin shouldn't affect dramamine (dimenhydrinate). However dramamine (dimenhydrinate) is not an effective med for motion sickness. Ask you doctor about Diazepam 2mg twice a day or scopolamine patch. If your condition is caused by cochlear hydrops, then a totally different therapy is needed.
