I thought i oughta share this. Or is it old hat?
I have never been seasick, ever, but shortly before recent trip i was under the boat scraping barnacles with breathing gear, and felt a bit ill for one reason or another partly in swell etc - and next day had to finish the job and was more ill, axshul vomiting. Set off on long trip on not-rolling boat but i became unable to hold anything i ate or drank. Within hours, para had rifled the medical supplies and gleefully announced he had found some suppositories! Arg! The next day i realised what a brilliant idea they would be - no use having pills if you can't keep down any liquid or solid food. It worked almost immediately. So, itinerol B6 seems to be pretty good. Not sure if available in UK cos all instructions in german or french. But they worked fab. Except for the obvious drawback of having to shove them up your backside. Which ( under the circumstances, as for me) might well be the only sort of treatment that could possibly work.
