Travacalm Original works through a triple-action formula:

Dimenhydrinate (antihistamine) blocks histamine receptors in the brain and inner ear responsible for nausea and vomiting during motion.

Hyoscine hydrobromide reduces inner ear sensory transmission and prevents imbalance signals that trigger vomiting.

Caffeine offsets the sedative effect of antihistamines and improves tolerance to movement-induced discomfort.

Together, this combination provides a synergistic effect to prevent and control all symptoms of motion sickness.
