I had not bought any for awhile. It doesn't get easier as time goes by but I just ordered some more from

We will see if they come, but they always have.
Thanks for this... I am taking 50mcd capsules of scopolamine hydrobromide which is the same exact chemical in Kwells which is called hyoscine hydrobromide internationally. The 50 mcd dose is OK for light seas but when it gets rougher, not so much. I wonder if even the 150mcd Kwells Kids dosage is going to be too much. Anyone have any experience with this in terms of dizziness, disorientation, etc.? I plan to experiment "on land" to see how it affects me, but wonder what others have experienced.

The French Pharmacy (UK) cancelled my order for 7 boxes. They could only sell me one box at a time. I reordered from "Your Discount Chemist" in Australia. So far so good. About a dollar US per pill but I just don't care. One of these has no side effects that I notice. Occasionally I have taken another (Really rough seas) after several hours, also without ill effect. I take a couple of Meclazine the night before. I almost never was on a dive boat without being really seasick before finding Hyoscine. I understand that ginger, beads, looking at the horizon or whatever may help people that are not really susceptible.
 
Go on lots of boats, take lots of car rides with bad drivers (especially taxi/rideshare drivers) while reading things on mobile phone
