Treatment Information
Overview
Avomine tablets are used to treat and prevent nausea and vomiting associated with travel sickness. These tablets work by stopping histamine from attaching to receptors in the body.
Avomine tablets are also recommended for other conditions such as giddiness and post-surgery nausea too.
Directions
Adults
For travel sickness:
-
To prevent travel sickness on long journeys, take one tablet before going to bed the night before you travel.
- For a short journey, take one tablet two hours before your journey.
For common sickness:
-
If you start feeling sick, take one tablet immediately.
-
A second tablet may be taken the same evening if needed. However, do not take more than four tablets in a 24-hour period.
Children
-
If the age of the child is over 10 years, use the same dosage as for adults.
-
If the age of the child is between 5 and 10 years, administer a half tablet.
-
If the age of the child is less than 5 years, these tablets are not suitable for him/her.

Seek medical advice in case of severe headaches, dizziness, difficulty balancing, or ringing in the ears.
