Try Tab Avomine one tablet half hour before starting journey or Tab Ondem MD4 one tablet half hour before starting journey.
Carry a semiripe or unripe lemon throughout the journey and keep scratching and smelling the lemon in between every 5-10 mins. This will definitely help with the motion sickness.
Another option is to wear a tight fitting N95 mask throughout the journey before entering the vehicle and to be removed only at the end of the journey.
Next Steps
consult online with me for prescription.

It is important to consult with a medical professional like me, regarding your condition for proper treatment. A thorough medical history is necessary before prescribing any medication.
If you experience motion sickness, you may consider taking Stemetil MD. It is recommended to take one tablet 15-20 minutes before beginning your journey.
Health Tips
1- Avoid drinking alcohol as it can worsen sleepiness .
2 - Do not drive or operate machinery after having the medicine.
3- Be aware that the medication can cause orthostatic hypotension (sudden lowering of blood pressure on standing), it's temporary for a few seconds, so before standing up suddenly from lying down, first sit then stand.
