Hi Yatsura, Stemetil works for me. I had this when I had vertigo from and inner ear infection.

Hi Yatsura,
When I asked for a sea sickness tablet for a cruise I was taking, the pharmacist recommended 'Stugeon'. I told him of my AF and the medication I was taking (beta blockers, bendroflumethazide and lansoprazole) at the time.
However I was not on a anticoagulant at the time so I would check again if I needed sea sickness tablets.
Pharmacists seem quite clued up. Alternatively ask your doc. I would never take any over the counter med unless I had checked it out first, that especially includes herbal remedies which I would steer clear of.
Hope this helps.
Regards
Dee

Also the holistic approach of sea bands worn on the wrists are often quite effective.
I have also used sea bands and they worked a treat in a storm across the Bay of Biscay!! Wendy
Hi
Just seen my GP for the same thing.I take Warfarin ,Bisoprolol ,Simvastatin,and she prescribed Cinnarizine 15 mg which is basically Stugeon

Thanks everybody for your replies , I have tried seabands which didn't work but then I am the type of person who gets sick in the harbour. I am taking same drugs as you Fi , so may give Stugeron a try.
