Scopoderm

Scopoderm is used to prevent motion sickness, including nausea and vomiting associated with travel by car, boat, or plane.

Scopoderm contains hyoscine, which is an anti-emetic medicine. Hyoscine blocks signals in the brain responsible for triggering nausea, effectively preventing motion sickness.

Scopoderm is typically available as a skin patch. Apply the patch behind your ear at least five hours before your journey. Replace it every three days or as directed by your healthcare provider.

No, you should not cut the Scopoderm patch. It's designed to release the medication slowly over time, and altering the patch may affect its effectiveness.

A single Scopoderm patch can provide protection for up to three days. Make sure to apply a new patch as directed to maintain its effectiveness.

The most common side effect of Scopoderm is dry mouth. Other side effects may include drowsiness, blurred vision, and dilated pupils. Consult your healthcare provider if you experience any unusual or severe side effects.

You should consult your healthcare provider before using Scopoderm if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, as they will assess the potential risks and benefits for your specific situation.

Scopoderm is generally not recommended for use in children under the age of 10. Consult a healthcare professional for guidance on suitable alternatives for children.

It is advisable to avoid alcohol while using Scopoderm, as it may increase the risk of certain side effects such as drowsiness and dizziness.

You can purchase Scopoderm from your local pharmacy with a prescription from a healthcare provider. Additionally, you can check with our online pharmacy for availability and pricing. Remember to follow your healthcare provider's instructions and read the product's patient information leaflet for complete guidance on the use of Scopoderm.
