Answers:
Yes! you can buy tablets from most super markets but i dont know about chemists!. there called motion sicknes tablets for planes, cars, buses and boats!. If not try looking right out the window with a cool breezw blowing on you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

you're susceptible to motion sickness:

Focus on the horizon or on a distant, stationary object!. Don't read!.
Keep your head still, while resting against a seat back!.
Don't smoke or sit near smokers!.
Avoid spicy and greasy foods and alcohol!. Don't overeat!.
Take an over-the-counter antihistamine, such as meclizine (Antivert, Bonine), or one containing dimenhydrinate (Dramamine) at least 30 to 60 minutes before you travel!. Expect drowsiness as a side effect!.
Consider scopolamine (Transderm Scop), available in a prescription adhesive patch!. Several hours before you plan to travel, apply the patch behind your ear for 72-hour protection!.
Eat dry crackers or drink a carbonated beverage to help settle your stomach if you become ill!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You can take Dramamine or something similar orally, or you can use what some of my shipmates use, it is a patch that goes behind your ear!. If you use the patch, you need to put it on 4 hours before you make the trip!. Other things to avoid!.!.!.reading while the vehicle is in motion, drinking an excessive amount of fluids, breathing cigarette smoke in the vehicle!. Try to keep air moving in the vehicle, either the air conditioner or keep the window down a little, have a good time in New Jersey, think positive thoughts on the way:)Www@Answer-Health@Com

Usually when you're driving the car yourself, you don't get carsick because you are busy concentrating on the road etc!. However, if you still think you need something you could try chewing gum!. I did this all the time as a kid when I was a back seat passenger in cars on long trips and it worked everytime!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
