Nausicalm (Dimenhydrinate)

Dimenhydrinate, the active ingredient in Nausicalm, is a first‑generation antihistamine presented as an oral tablet for oral use. It treats motion‑sickness, nausea and vertigo in adults and children.

GNH USA supplies Nausicalm as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide.

Dimenhydrinate acts as an antihistamine and anticholinergic to control vestibular and gastrointestinal disturbances.

- Motion sickness: reduces nausea, vomiting and dizziness caused by travel or movement. - Vertigo: alleviates dizziness associated with vestibular disorders. - Prevention of nausea and vomiting: used prophylactically to lessen postoperative or other acute nausea episodes.

Dimenhydrinate may cause a range of adverse reactions, most of which are mild and transient.

Common Side Effects: - Drowsiness - Dry mouth - Blurred vision - Constipation - Headache - Dizziness

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Allergic reactions such as rash, angioedema, or anaphylaxis - Tachycardia or irregular heart rhythm - Confusion or mental status changes - Urinary retention, especially in patients with prostate enlargement - Severe hypotension - Rare seizures or convulsions

When using Dimenhydrinate, consider the following safety measures.

- Pediatric use: follow age‑appropriate dosing guidance and monitor for excessive sedation. - Alcohol and CNS depressants: avoid concomitant use as it may enhance drowsiness. - Glaucoma: use with caution due to anticholinergic effects that can increase intra‑ocular pressure. - Elderly patients: monitor closely for anticholinergic burden and falls. - Hypersensitivity: discontinue if signs of allergic reaction appear. - Store at ambient temperature: keep in the original packaging, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.
