Effect of certain drugs on the incidence of seasickness

Several drugs were tested, some of them for the first time, against seasickness in military personnel on transport ships on the North Atlantic ocean. All of the drugs were given three fimes a day. Of the new ones tested phenglutarmide, 2.5 mg., and cinnarazine, 7.5 mg., were significantly effective on a single trip. Somewhat less effective were atropine and orphenadrine.
