Where do you buy Stugeron?

[Funkie]

Over the counter in the Bahamas and by prescription in US.

[Bill Youmans]

Never seen it available in the US as did not go thru the FDA testing, formally years ago. Europe et al have used it for >25 years and now OTC.
Last year I got it mail order from Canada Drugs Direct--a good outfit.

In the states it goes under the name of Cinirazine,,think
That's the way to spell it...
Dom. Republic has it over the counter cheaper than
In the states.
Most islands in the Caribbean carry it either as
Sturgeon or Cinirazine....

You can get stugeron in the US with a prescription. It has become very expensive. Have your eye doctor check to see if you have narrow angle glaucoma. This is not common glaucoma and is not a disease. This eye deformity is fixed with a simple laser treatment. You can lose your sight from a side effect of stugeron. My wife had the laser treatment as a precaution cruising the Bahamas.

Buy this instead. One time purchase and ZERO side effects. I've had this for about 20 years, used on lots of people, always works. Had a rich client on his new to him yacht. Turning green, ready to feed fishes, in very bad shape. Put this on him and 15 minutes later he was below decks asking the chef to prepare a dinner for him. Never fed the fishys btw.

The one I linked to uses replaceable batteries. The rechargeable ones lose power after 8 hours and then are useless until you recharge them. Replaceable batteries last for days and swap out quick although if you've been at sea that long your body probably has adjusted and it's no longer needed.

I bought some online from ebay. 25mg. It came in about 3 weeks from Azerbaijan. No problems.

Older guys with prostate problems should be careful about taking certain seasickness meds as some meds can really aggravate the existing problem. Fortunately, I don't get seasick, but I carry Foley catheters in case one of my crew ever develops a problem. Just a word of caution.

Where do you usually get it? I asked in France, Portugal and Spain with no luck.

I get it in Bermuda. If you know anyone going on the race they can pick it up this spring.

I'm confused IF you can't buy it IN Canada how does CanadaDrugs.com operate??
They were my source too. Nice fish story , too.
Once in the Bahamas, any pharmacy has it very inexpensively.

I have sailed with individuals who have taken Stugeron and it turns them into zombies.
It pacifies them, but reduces their efficiency to actively sail to a great degree.
It is probably ok, if you are a passenger and passive on a ship.

A traditional method is to use root ginger, which can be infused as a ginger tea and it does work in my experience.

Search Goggle for "ginger sea sickness"

You can buy root ginger in many grocery stores and it remains usable for months,
You can also buy manufactured ginger tablets and other products in health food stores.

We've used Stugeron for years bought online from UK. However have found that the locally available product Travacalm is just as good. Maybe my wife has become acclimatised? As far as I can see the active ingredient does the same thing in both.

Reminds me of the time...
I gave a crew member a Stuggy before we sailed. 'What should I do with it?' she sez
'Stick it under your tongue ' sez I

About an hour or so later
" this pill is still under my tongue........'

I’ve bought it several times in the US from CanadaDrugsOnline. Took about a month to arrive but seemed genuine. It’s been a few year since my last order but they still list it. No prescription. Don’t get the 75mg. I find the 25mg a good dose. My lighter wife breaks it in half.

Canada Drugs Online is no longer in business, the result of selling counterfeit pharmaceuticals and using USA (.com) for marketing Canadian pharmaceuticals.

Rather interesting article on the .com site. Good news apparently is that other Canadian companies have stepped in as replacements.

Geez, they seemed to be in business yesterday when i placed an order with them. Maybe I'm the dupe who is out $50. Or maybe I'll get some stugeron in the mail in few weeks. To be continued...
