How Stugeron works:
The inner ear contains the vestibular organs that control your sense of balance. The motion of travelling can lead to these organs becoming confused, leading to a signal being sent from the vestibular organs to the vomiting centre in the brain via the vestibular nerve. Stugeron contains Cinnarizine, which blocks the signals from travelling down this nerve and hence stopping the vomiting centre of the brain from being activated by motion.
