Can anyone recommend a non-drowsy OTC motion sickness medicine that they find effective and truly non-drowsy?

To be honest, to be effective, they make you drowsy.
Dramamine used to make a "less drowsy" version. Maybe try that one.

Or if they work for you, sea bands maybe. I know people swear by that.

Dramamine Less Drowsy........ I take it a lot and it never makes me drowsy. Regular Dramamine however, knocks me on my a$$.

Try Motion Eze.

I have used it for motion sickness on 3 cruises and it's worked great. It's all natural and you dab it on behind your ear when you start feeling sick.

I will say I don't get severe motion sickness. However, this has definitely helped me a lot. And it helps almost immediately.

They make wristbands that you wear on pressure points. I don't personally get motion sickness, but I've hear they are effective.

Bonine and Dramamine are the exact same drug.
Meclizine HCL 25mg

Just a different brand name. Kind of like Motrin and Advil are both ibuprofen.

Bonine sounded more related to motion sickness. Chat Icon

Personally, I’d probably pop a Dramamine and then chase it with some coffee.
