I have taken pepcid over the counter as well as about 10 different prescribed medications. None work. Thanks. Any more ideas?

Have you tried Zyprexia, a psychiatric drug that is used off-label for nausea? And how about Ativan, in small doses, also off-label use? Both have worked for me at a time when the other anti-nausea meds did not. Let me know.

Keeping a journal of what you eat and note when nausea happens .. after meals or medication.. may help you figure out triggers. Sometimes eating greasy foods, sweets or eating too much at one time can trigger nausea, You might try eating small frequent meals… just eat part of your regular meal and eat the rest later.

My husband bought a Reliefband over a year and a half ago for me and I have had great success with it. You wear it like an upside down watch on your wrist and it works much like a TENs machine. I was very surprised when it worked. My husband had nausea a while back an he borrowed it and he said .. who would have thunk that would work. He buys them on Amazon for me and buys the one with replaceable batteries. I don't want to wait for something to charge when I have nausea. I also use it when I have a migraine headache or vertigo. I wasn't a believer to start with .. TENs machines never helped me much in PT.
