Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

Dramamine is used to stop nausea and dizziness related to motion sickness but if you feel that it can help nausea and dizziness related to antidepressants you can safely use it.
Antidepressants usually cause nausea and dizziness and this can be the cause of your symptoms. You can also consider visiting an ENT doctor because inner ear issues can also give dizziness and nausea.
Also long hours working on computer and need for glasses can give nausea and dizziness. You may need to visit an ophthalmologist to examine your eyes and check if you may need glasses.
Do breaks often as you are working on computer.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
