Seasickness treatment with cinnarizine

Bull Inst Marit Trop Med Gdynia. 1983;34(3-4):215-6.

Abstract

The investigations on the therapeutic effect of cinnarizine in 112 passengers of a ship complaining of seasickness was carried out. In 5 cases no improvement was found, and 7 results were questionable. The results obtained in the group cured with cinnarizine compared with those in the group where Aviomarin and placebo were administered show great efficacy of cinnarizine. It seems that the therapy with this medicine could be recommended.
