Gravol Immediate Release & Long Acting Caplets (24 pack) is a combination medication designed to provide both fast-acting and long-lasting relief from nausea, vomiting, and dizziness.
Features:
-
Dual Action: Contains two types of dimenhydrinate:
- 25mg for immediate release: Provides quick relief within 30 minutes, helping to manage nausea and vomiting soon after taking the caplet.
- 75mg for sustained release: Offers long-lasting relief for up to 12 hours, preventing nausea and vomiting throughout the day.
- Convenient: One caplet provides relief for an extended period, reducing the need for frequent dosing.
- Caplet Form: Easier to swallow than tablets for some people.
Active Ingredient:
- Dimenhydrinate (100mg per caplet): This antihistamine is the active ingredient that helps prevent nausea and vomiting.
How to Use:
- Adults and Children 12 years and older: Take 1 caplet every 12 hours, with or without food. Do not exceed 2 caplets in 24 hours.
Things to Consider:
- Read the Label Carefully: Follow the dosage instructions on the label precisely.
- Not for Everyone: Consult a doctor before using Gravol if you have certain medical conditions, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or are taking other medications.
- May Cause Drowsiness: Drowsiness is a common side effect of dimenhydrinate. Avoid driving or operating machinery after taking Gravol.
- Other Side Effects: Some people may experience dry mouth, headache, or dizziness. If these persist or worsen, consult a doctor.
- Not a Cure: Gravol helps manage symptoms but doesn't cure the underlying cause of nausea or vomiting.
Alternatives:
- Gravol in Other Forms: Gravol comes in various forms like liquids or chewable tablets, which some might find easier to take.
- Natural Remedies: Ginger (lozenges, chews, or tea) is a natural option some find effective for nausea, although research is mixed.
