Brief Answer:
No interactions

Detailed Answer:
Hello, I'm Dr. Branch, thanks for using Ask a Doctor. As you may already know, Amox-Clav is a penicillin-type antibiotic used for many different bacterial infections. Dramamine is an antihistamine often used for motion sickness. The two medications do not have any interactions and do not make the side effects of either one worse, so they would be perfectly safe to use together in normal doses.

I hope that helps, please let me know if you have any questions about any of that, and I would be glad to discuss it with you further.
