Aerospace Medicine Specialist Questions Motion Sickness

I get sick whenever I fly. What do you recommend?

Every time I have a long flight, I just get really sick. Sometimes I throw up, other times I get really nauseous. I have a big trip coming up, and I cannot cancel. Is there anything that I can do to subdue my nausea while flying?

Two things come to mind, either you have a propensity to have motion sickness or anxiety. Assuming you are not flight crew, try some OTC Dramamine. Get a window seat and look out the window-look at the horizon. Same approach as on a boat. If you think it's anxiety, then explore why you are anxious.
