I hear the two substances are similar, but can benadryl take the place of dramamine to ease nausea during an LSA trip?
Wish I could just smoke pot but I gotta keep THC out of my system for a while.

Possibly, but I highly doubt it, it is an allergy relief, use a traveling sickness pill, those are supposed to work best, as for a brand I would google it.

The same active compound that's in diphenhydramine (Benadryl) is in dramamine. A couple pills work rather well for counteracting LSA nausea, but it might add an overpowering drowsiness to your trip. Maybe try some ginger?

Not quite, I believe dramamine is dimenhydrinate... but once it dissolves in your belly, it becomes diphenhydramine. Bottom line, yes it ought to work the same.
But I 100% agree that you don't want the sedative anticholinergia messing with the LSA trip. Ginger is the way to go

Hehe, you're correct. To be more accurate, dimenhydrinate is a salt of diphenhydramine and a mild stimulant.

Just regular cooking ginger or what? Just seems quite odd that it would ease nausea. I'm sure I have some somewhere in the house.
I also plan to use an herbal smoking blend that produces 'the munchies' effect much like cannabis as well as all the other effects, but I did want something to fall back on that will in fact ease the nausea.

Regular cooking ginger works fine, usually you brew it into a tea. I prefer fresh ginger for flavor (it's probably got more of the anti-nausea chemicals), which you should be able to find in the produce section at most grocery stores. Just cut a few thin slices, brew it into tea, and sweeten with a bit of honey.

Okay, should I drink it down while I ingest the seeds, wait a few minutes, or wait until the nausea sets in?
