Everyone I know that gets seasick that has tried it swears by it. I don't know of even one case where it did not work.

Side affects are minor - a dry mouth. You need one pill every 8 hours. Some folks take only 1/2 a pill.
Scopace (scopolamine) is no longer available in pill form-not even sure if it can be found it a patch anymore. It was is without a doubt the best sea-sickness prevention medication that I have used. Taken 30 minutes before you set sail & you're good to go.

Fortunately, I still have a 15 left and only take them when I know for sure it's going to be snotty.
