Why is this medication prescribed?

Meclizine is an antihistamine commonly used to control nausea, vomiting and dizziness.

Meclizine acts as a central nervous system depressant. It is believed that its therapeutic actions occur due to the drug's drying effects and its ability to depress conduction of nerve messages in the inner ear.

Meclizine begins working about one hour after ingestion. It continues being effective for 8 to 24 hours.

Meclizine is sold under numerous commercial names, including Dramamine II®, Dramamine Less Drowsy®, Antivert®, Bonamine®, Bonikraft®, Emetostop®, Medivert® and Sea-Legs®.
