Now, with what you are describing your nausea seems to be caused by your headache so I'm not sure that peppermint would help you. I've taken Phenergan for nausea before but it tended to make me drowsy, too.

Have you tried the OTC meds like Emitrol? It's a syrup but it really helps. I can't remember if it makes you sleepy because I took it years (and I mean YEARS) ago for a hangover!!

Maybe your doctor or pharmacist can suggest something. Hope you feel better soon.


Yes, I have tried Emetrol but it's SO sweet that it makes me sick, LOL. I had an RX for Phenergan and it helped some but I toke it all (got it from the ER after my LP when I got those awful stomach bugs).
