I'll repeat my previous post with slight modification.
This is NOT always good advice. One of the potential side effects of Bonine
is nausea (go figure), which is exactly what it does to my wife. It also
makes her sleepy ( and this is the non-drowsy formula). So in her case, an
ounce of prevention is a pound of PAIN.
