scopalomine

Having 4 show dogs out around the U.S.A.and Canada,we made sure that each got one or two ginger snap cookies 1/2 hour before they left.They adjusted to the various vehichles [handlers].no more problems.
I have never been sea sick but my father ,who was in the navy during the war on an icebreaker,told me that when you get it ,you want to die.
So every time I go sailing for any length of time on the ocean ,I always use a scop patch. good for 3 days and then I throw it away [always have more on hand just in case]
I think the lady that was mentioned may have been a bit on the small side[they run that way,doncha know? ] Perhaps the scop patch was too much for her. I know that when I have used a second one [days 4,5 &6 ] that i get a dull head ache that will not go away . So i never use one for more than the first 3 days and they work like a charm for me ..
your mileage may vary !
