Directions for Use

Sunward Dimenhydrinate 50mg Tablet should be taken by mouth with a glass of water, ideally 30 minutes to 1 hour before starting a journey, and can be taken with or without food.

Do not exceed the maximum recommended daily dose.

Dimenhydrinate is one of the most widely used over-the-counter medicines for preventing motion sickness and has a long history of safe use in Malaysia when taken as directed; because it can cause drowsiness, it should be used cautiously by anyone who needs to remain alert, such as drivers, and pregnant women or people with glaucoma, asthma, or prostate enlargement should check with a pharmacist or doctor before use.
