Can This Be Used For Air Sickness? Wednesday, 4/2/2008 10:22:06 PM in Bonine I'm a student pilot, and I had my first flight yesterday. Awhile into the flight after we hit some turbulence and started practicing descents I almost lost it. I was sweating profusely and felt extremely nauseous. So much so that my instructor had to take over the controls and open an air vent for me. Anyways, I mentioned to him that I wanted to take Dramamine before the next flight but he told me that in the eyes of the FAA it is illegal to take any sort of medication while piloting an airplane. That's understandable since your functions may be impaired by certain drugs. But I keep reading that Bonine is non-drowsy, and I remember taking it before going in a boat and did not feel any fatigue. Can anybody else speak about this? Since Bonine is non drowsy, can it be taken prior to a flight lesson? I really want to be able to fly without the air sickness. Thanks, Nick 2 Replies

Meclizine Sunday, 1/29/2006 1:57:23 PM in Meclizine I have been prescribed Meclizine for dizziness, and it is working fine on that part. I was wondering if there was any weight gain side effects from this medication. I am on others that to have that as a side effect, but I just think that I am gaining too much weight too fast, and was wondering if this was also a weight gainer. I thank-you so much for your input.
