Suggest The Usage Of Vomiting Powder

Hi,

I am an American living in South Korea. I don't speak very much Korean. I went to a pharmacy yesterday and tried to find dramamine by miming being on a bus and vomiting. The pharmacist gave me something called Vomilong Powder. Because of the language barrier I didn't really understand, but it seems to be the correct medicine. However, I can't figure out whether I need to simply ingest it, or dissolve it in water. I can't find any English information online about how to take the medicine.

Please help! Thank you very much.

Hi and thanks for this query.

i a so sorry to hear about this communication difficulty. Unfortunately, all the available information is in a language foreign to me. Tapping into my medical funds, I will recommend that you dissolve the prescribed quantity into half a glass of water. It makes no difference because its site of action is not the mouth and there is no point in ingesting it rather than dissolving.

I hope this helps. I wish you well.
