 what are the symtoms of motion sikness?

1.Feeling sick (nausea).

2.Sweating

3.Increase in saliva

4.Headaches

5.Feeling cold and going pale

6.Feeling weak

Treatments:

1.Hyoscine: Hyoscine is usually the most effective medicine for motion sickness. It is also known as scopolamine. It works by preventing the confusing nerve messages going to your brain.
You should take a dose 30-60 minutes before a journey; the effect can last up to 72 hours.

2.Antihistamines: Antihistamines can also be useful, although they are not quite as effective as hyoscine. However, they usually cause fewer side-effect

3.Prochlorperazine is a prescription-only medicine which works by changing the actions of the chemicals that control the tendency to be sick (vomit), in your brain.

4.Metoclopramide is a tablet used to speed up the emptying of your tummy. Slow emptying of the tummy is something that happens when you develop nausea and vomiting, so metoclopramide can help prevent this.

5.Domperidone, like metoclopramide, is sometimes used for sickness caused by slow tummy emptying

6.Ondansetron is a powerful antisickness medicine which is most commonly used for sickness caused by chemotherapy, and occasionally used for morning sickness in pregnancy.  .

How to prevent motion sickness?

- Prepare for your journey:
Don't eat a heavy meal before travelling. Light, carbohydrate-based food like cereals an hour or two before you travel is best.
On long journeys, try breaking the journey to have some fresh air, drink some cold water and, if possible, take a short walk.
- Where you sit:
Keep motion to a minimum. For example, sit in the front of a car, over the wing of a plane, or on deck in the middle of a boat.
On a boat, stay on deck and avoid the cafeteria or sitting where your can smell the engines.
- Breathing and smell:
Breathe fresh air if possible. For example, open a car window.
Avoid strong smells, particularly petrol and diesel fumes. This may mean closing the window and turning on the air conditioning, or avoiding the engine area in a boat.
- Close your eyes (and keep them closed for the whole journey). This reduces 'positional' signals from your eyes to your brain and reduces the confusion.
- Don't try to read.
- Try listening to an audio book with your eyes closed. There is some evidence that distracting your brain with audio signals can reduce your sensitivity to the motion signals.
- Try to sleep - this works mainly because your eyes are closed, but it is possible that your brain is able to ignore some motion signals when you are asleep.
- It is advisable not to watch moving objects such as waves or other cars. Don't look at things your brain expects to stay still, like a book inside the car. Instead, look ahead, a little above the horizon, at a fixed place.
- If you are the driver you are less likely to feel motion sickness. This is probably because you are constantly focused on the road ahead and attuned to the movements that you expect the vehicle to make. If you are not, or can't be, the driver, sitting in the front and watching what the driver is watching can be helpful.
