Combat the Motion Sickness

Advantages: It works
Disadvantages: /

Phenergan is an over the counter or prescribed medicine that has several uses. It can be used for travel sickness and this has been the main reason I have used it repeatedly over the years, but also for allergic reactions such as hay fever or hives and as a mild sedative. I was first introduced to Phenergan through work colleagues. My son was about 9 months old at the time and I was struggling to keep my eyes open at work as my son did not sleep ...
...office suggested I get some Phenergan and occasionally give my son a spoonful before bed, as it is a mild sedative and would give me a full nights sleep every so often to re-charge my batteries. I was a little dubious and fearful of giving my son a sedative just so I could sleep through the night, but eventually I battled with my conscience and went to the chemist. Thankfully, at this point I was turned away as they do not sell this over the counter ...

The Night Time Tablet

Advantages: Excellent for sleeping problems, Not addictive
Disadvantages: Not for major sleeping disorders

...read through most of the Phenergan opinions on this site and was very surprised to see that no one has written about the "Phenergan Night Time Tablets". Several months ago I had a very severe pain on the right hand side of my body around the top of my leg. The pain was most severe in the night and I used to have great difficulty in sleeping. As you may be aware from some of my previous opinions I travel to West Africa a lot and one of my trips I ...
...is the case with all Phenergan products, such as the normal tablets and the syrup, this contains Promethazine Hydrochloride. In the case of these tablets it contains 25 mg of it. This ingredient is the one that brings about drowsiness and induces sleep. It worked splendidly for me and I am all praises for this product. It is also very inexpensive and I stopped taking them after 7 days. After stopping them I thought that I may suffer from drawback ...

Be careful

Advantages: Good antihistamine if used correctly
Disadvantages: It can be misused

Phenergan is a product which is available for purchase over the counter in most pharmacies and it has an infamous reputation among mothers for use as a sedative for their young children as it causes drowsiness. For any of you who are not familiar with the product, Phenergan contains an antihistamine called Promethazine Hydrochloride. As it is one of the older type antihistamines it causes drowsiness in both adults and children. Obviously children ...
...of children, one spoonful of Phenergan elixir was enough to give them, and the rest of the family, a decent night’s sleep. Using it to put a child to sleep used to be fine if prescribed by a GP but Phenergan is not supposed to be sold over the counter in chemists for putting children or babies to sleep. You can give it to children for allergies, itching and travel sickness, however it is not really recommended to be used as a sedative without medical ...

You may feel like you have drunk too much

Advantages: Variety of uses
Disadvantages: Made me feel like I had drunk 20 pints the night before

...THOUGH I DON'T LIKE IT Phenergan (aka Sominex)(generic name - promethazine) has been around for many years, and was originally used to be used to treat abnormal behaviour arising from mental illnesses. In more recent times however it has also been found to be very effective against the itching brought on by allergic reactions and is also used as an anti-emetic (to prevent nausea) and thus suggested for travel sickness. COMBINATION PREPARATIONS ...
...variety of contact allergies, yet, Phenergan drug knocks me sideways. A young child will not be in a position to tell you how they feel, and I would say use with caution. Maybe I just react badly to it, but I certainly do not like the effect it has on me. (This is a woman who received enough Temazepam to sedate a horse before an operation in hospital and still had to be held down by four nurses so that they could administer the anaesthetic. Other ...

Car Sickness

Advantages: Stops motion sickness
Disadvantages: Causes drowsiness

I was recommended Phenergan by our pharmacist for motion sickness for my daughter who is 3 years old. The dosage is one 5ml spoon the night before and one 5ml spoonful the morning before travelling. The effect is dramatic. My daughter gets motion sickness if she goes further that about 10 miles and is sick for the duration of the whole journey. Now she is happy travelling by car, plane or boat and doesn't get at all sick. She still manages to eat ...
...not falling asleep on her nose or anything but seems to "chill her out". I would think that two or more spoonfuls would make her fall asleep instantly, especially as in larger doses as it is a sedative. I wouldn't like to take the chance and find out. As a travel sickness drug it excellent in my opinion. ...
