I have never heard of this. If you stop the medication does she not have this issue? I would do some research on side effects of the medication and see if motion sickness is there. You could ask to switch if it is bad. Is she reading while in car is in motion?

Thank you for your comment, I will research more about the side effects, and yes sometimes she is in her phone looking down, but other times she is not. I will talk to the doctor on her next visit.

Thank you.

My one grandson used to get carsick a lot but it had nothing to do with meds I don't think. He could not read or look at this phone in the car. Now that he is a teen he has somewhat outgrown this.
