Generic Nausea Medicine
Nausea, motion sickness and morning sickness can put a damper on your day, but generic nausea medicine can help tackle your uncomfortable symptoms. A variety of generic medicines is available that may be just as helpful as brand-name medications to help alleviate distressing symptoms.
Does Generic Nausea Medicine Work?
The active ingredients included in generic nausea medication can help address stomach upset, heartburn, morning sickness and motion sickness.
The different types of medicines target specific ailments. For example, motion sickness formulas contain an antiemetic to help counteract nausea, and other formulas act to help alleviate indigestion. Generic anti-nausea medications come in chewable tablets, capsules, liquids and wearable bands.
For best results, always follow the directions on the label of the medication.
What Is the Generic Name for Nausea Medicine?
Several ingredients can help manage nausea and stomach upset, each with a different action. Some common generic medicines for vomiting and diarrhea include:
Antiemetics, such as meclizine hydrochloride or dimenhydrinate
Antidiarrheals, such as bismuth subsalicylate
Upset stomach relief, including fructose, glucose or sodium citrate dihydrate
Medicines to help with nausea usually contain one active ingredient, which may target one symptom or address multiple symptoms. CVS Health Motion Sickness Relief contains meclizine hydrochloride and is meant to help alleviate motion sickness. Bismuth subsalicylate is the main ingredient in CVS Health Maximum Strength Stomach Relief, and this formula may help relieve nausea, diarrhea, heartburn, upset stomach and indigestion. Wearable options are also available, such as the CVS Health Morning & Motion Sickness Bands. These use acupressure to help reduce nausea and dizziness associated with early pregnancy or traveling. They contain no drugs and are reusable.
Is Generic Nausea Medicine the Same as the Name Brand?
Many generic nausea medicines contain the same or similar active ingredients as well-known brands, so they're likely to be just as effective as their name-brand counterparts at tackling uncomfortable symptoms, such as heartburn and vomiting. CVS Health Motion Sickness Less Drowsy Formula contains meclizine hydrochloride, the same active ingredient featured in Dramamine's less-drowsy formula. To help reduce heartburn, nausea and indigestion, you can try CVS Health Original Stomach Relief liquid, which contains bismuth subsalicylate, the same active ingredient found in Pepto Bismol.
Whatever generic nausea medicine you choose, carefully read the dosage instructions on the label, and follow the directions. If you're not sure whether you can safely take a generic medicine for vomiting, consult your doctor.
