Hello fellow TV-forumeers.

Is there any such thing as anti vomit medicine, and can I buy this medicine from Thai pharpacys?

To make a long story short. I am 'extra sensitive' to everything that makes a person throw up. Bad smells, foods, boat trips, alcohol, flying, spinning around, riding rollercoasters, e.t.c. e.t.c.. Even small exposures to all these things (and many other things) makes my body want to throw up. I have had this problem before. It went away naturally, but now it is back to haunt me again.

Does some sort of anti-vomit medicine exist, and can I purchase this from pharmacies in Thailand?

I'm so tired of having to run back and forth to the toilet every now and then.

Thanks!

it they do exist why not try your luck at a pharmacy and ask.

Usually pharmacists speak very well English.

Good luck.

google is your pharmacy friend ......

You could try metoclopramid which should be easily available from pharmacies.

Make sure you look up the manufacturers instructions.

I was given Plasil ( metoclopramide ) injection at a hospital ( in Bangkok ) following a bad reaction to a spider bite, constant vomiting. I had been unaware of the bite itself so vomiting was not caused by 'fear'. Within seconds of the injection I had gone into spasmic shock, no feeling in my legs, etc. I have been left with no feeling inside my feet ( broken toes go unnoticed ) but I can 'Feel' my feet all the time - also my toes have the condition called "Curled toes" which means the joints are slowly bending, like a chicken feet; some but few Asian doctors know of this condition. Unfortunately I cannot offer any alternative medication suggestions at this time. Stress can cause one to feel nauseous.

This is the usual drug, common brand name in Thailand is plasil. As with any drug, read up on contraindications and side effects. Most people tolerate it well but there is often some drowsiness so should not drive after taking it.

In the case of nausea due to sea-sickness/motion sickness, Dimenhydrinate (various brand names) works for many people.

Neither if these should be taken regularly and indeed, if you need an anti-emetic regularly, then something is wrong and the cause needs to be found and addressed.

Thanks for all the replies. Much appreciated. I will go to my local pharmacist and ask about these items.

And yeah, thanks for the heads upp on side effects. I'll be careful.

I suffer gastric reflux and was prescribed metaclopramide daily by my UK GP to prevent vomiting.

My doc at the AEK Udon Hospital has prescribed Domperidone Malate tablets instead taken on a need basis rather than regularly.Brand I have is Motilium-M.by OLIC.

Perhaps Sheryl would advise you which is best.

Hope that builds on the above

Domperidone is not a medication which should be taken other than if prescribed.
