Frequently asked questions about Cyclizine
What is cyclizine?
Cyclizine is an antihistamine that treats symptoms related to motion sickness, such as nausea, vomiting, and dizziness. It's convenient because it's an over-the-counter (OTC) medication, but it can cause excessive sleepiness (drowsiness).
Is cyclizine still available?
No. Cyclizine was discontinued by its manufacturer and is no longer available as a brand or generic medication in the United States.
Why was cyclizine discontinued?
It's unknown why cyclizine was discontinued. It's possible that other OTC motion sickness medications were used more commonly, so there might not have been a need for cyclizine anymore.
