  1. More effective than first-generation antihistamines
  2. Less sedating than the first-generation antihistamines
  3. Prescription products, therefore are covered by insurance
  4. Able to be taken with central nervous system (CNS) sedatives, such as alcohol

  2. Drink lots of water while taking the dimenhydrinate
  3. Take the dimenhydrinate 15 minutes before it is needed
  4. Double the dose if one tablet is not effective
