Scopolamine

Hello all - there must be a reason the higher powers want me to be miserable. I have developed adult onset motion sickness. I vomit every time I get into the car. No matter how long or how short the trip. I now have in my possession oral scopolamine (works faster than the patches). I searched the archives and could find no mention of this drug. Does anyone know if this drug will affect my RLS and if so will it make it better or worse? Thank you.

It should be fine.

It’s a serotonin antagonist so it should be ok, but if you’re like me then it isn’t because I don’t tolerate either agonist or antagonists.

Plz let me know how this works for you because I, too, struggle with car sickness and would like to find something that helps the motion sickness but doesn't trigger my RLS. Thanks!

Zofran seems to work w/o triggering my RLS, but those scop patches make my RLS worse.
