What is Dimenhydrinate?

Dimenhydrinate is an over-the-counter medication that relieves nausea, vomiting, and vertigo caused by motion sickness, a condition in which the brain receives conflicting sensations about whether or how the body is moving. When the brain responds to this confusion, substances called histamines are produced in the brain. These histamines excite the nausea center in the brainstem, producing nausea, vertigo, and vomiting.

Dimenhydrinate is an antihistamine that blocks the actions of histamines throughout the body, but most importantly, in that part of the brain that triggers nausea.

Non-prescription Dimenhydrinate is taken as a tablet, chewable tablet, or capsule one half to one hour before starting an activity that may cause motion sickness. Prescription Dimenhydrinate is injected by a healthcare professional if the patient cannot take the medication by mouth. A Dimenhydrinate injection typically provides four hours of relief from motion sickness.
