Dimenhydrinate

An antihistamine and anticholinergic medication that is commonly used to prevent and treat motion sickness. it works by blocking the action of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that is involved in the regulation of movement and nausea.

Pyridoxine

An essential vitamin that plays a crucial role in many metabolic processes, including the production of neurotransmitters. it is often included in medications for its potential benefits in reducing nausea and vomiting.

Prevention and treatment of motion sickness (nausea, vomiting, dizziness caused by travel)

Management of vertigo (a sensation of spinning or dizziness)

This combination medication works by targeting multiple pathways in the body to reduce nausea, vomiting, and dizziness. Cinnarizine and dimenhydrinate act as antihistamines and anticholinergics, blocking the action of histamine and acetylcholine, respectively, in the brain. These neurotransmitters are involved in the regulation of movement and nausea. Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) is believed to enhance the effectiveness of the other ingredients by promoting the production of neurotransmitters and potentially mitigating some side effects.

Store the medication at room temperature, away from moisture and heat. Keep it out of reach of children and pets.
