Short answer

A good anti-nausea medicine depends on the cause, your symptoms, other medicines and whether you can keep fluids down.

This answers one question. It is not a diagnosis and does not replace an assessment by a licensed doctor.

What it means

Nausea can accompany gastroenteritis, food poisoning, acid reflux, gastritis, gallstones, heat exhaustion, hepatitis A or hypoglycaemia. A medicine may ease the symptom without treating the cause, and some options cause drowsiness or interactions.

What to do next

Take small sips of water or oral rehydration drink if tolerated, choose light foods, follow label directions and ask a pharmacist about pregnancy, children or chronic illness. Do not combine products.

When to seek care

Get urgent help for inability to keep fluids down, blood in vomit, severe abdominal pain, confusion, fainting, chest pain, stiff neck or severe dehydration.

Questions for your doctor

Ask what may be causing nausea, whether a medicine fits current treatments, how long to try it and which side effects need review.
