I would like to give gravols for motion sickness to my 27lbs baby. What dosage should I give?

Hello Ma'am,

If the product you have at home is Gravol for children (https://gravol.ca/en/product/kids-liquid/), then you need to give a 4 milliliter dose.

Happy day,

Alexandre Chagnon, pharmacist

It is best to refrain in such a case, if possible. Not so much because taking Gravol is dangerous, but rather because some children have paradoxical reactions (while taking Gravol tends to put adults to sleep, some children become very very agitated...not great in the car).

Has he ever suffered from motion sickness or is this a preventative measure?

I understand!

No, it's really the right thing for you in this case. I would just recommend trying to give him a small dose before the day of the "trip", just to see if he will have a paradoxical reaction (it's still rare, but very unpleasant when it happens).

At this age, we still give 4 milliliters.

It feels good!
