A member asked:

My daughter is 19 months old and battles with car sickness. what medicine can i give her to prevent car sickness on a long trip?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

I avoid meds: I usually adjust their diet for these kids. Meds can backfire or be too sedating. Feeding the kid just carbohydrates & protein, minimizing fatty food will make their digestion process faster. Fats linger in the stomach & are more likely to come up. I start the day before & continue during travel.
