Stugeron 15mg Tablets information
What are Stugeron Tablets and what are they used for?
Stugeron is a travel or motion sickness tablet containing the active ingredient cinnarizine. Cinnarizine is an antihistamine that reduces symptoms of travel sickness, regardless of the cause. These symptoms include:
- Vomiting
- Nausea
- Dizziness
- Vertigo
- Ringing in the ear (tinnitus) associated with middle ear disorders
Stugeron tablets can be taken by adults and children over the age of 5 years to help combat unpleasant symptoms associated with travelling. A single dose should be taken 2 hours before the intended travel with effects lasting for up to 8 hours.
How do Stugeron Tablets work?
Stugeron tablets contain 15 mg of the active ingredient cinnarizine. This is an antihistamine that stops nerve signals from triggering the vomiting centre in the brain. These signals are sent by the vestibular apparatus at the inner ear, and preventing them from reaching the brain suppresses symptoms of travel sickness.
The vestibular apparatus is sending the brain information on the body's position. When the head is moving a lot, such as when travelling by car or plane, these signals can trigger the vomiting centre in the brain. This causes symptoms such as nausea, dizziness, vertigo, or vomiting.
Alternatives to Stugeron Tablets
If you would prefer to not use any medicine to help with travel sickness there are ways that you can try to minimise the effects the motion has on you. To avoid travel sickness, try to remain seated and face forwards whilst travelling. To suppress nausea, try focusing on a single point on the horizon.
Alternatives travel sickness treatments that use slightly different ingredients to reduce symptoms include:
