Where can I find Dramamine?
Culebra, Puerto Rico

Hi everyone! My wife and I love Culebra so much that we brought her parents here from NY to celebrate Mothers' Day.

Unfortunately, my mother-in-law had a rough trip over on the ferry (whoops, I told her it was an easy trip, not knowing the Fast Cat was no longer in service).

We couldn't find Dramamine at Mayra's, Colamado Milka, nor Costa Del Sol...does anybody know where I can get some? Or, if you have a stash and would like to be my pusherman/pusherwoman (in the words of Curtis Mayfield), I'd be eternally grateful and would be happy to buy you a drink or three.

We're leaving Thursday, so I'll be around...

Many thanks,

Chris

We have gotten Dramamine at all 3 of the markets you mentioned, but typically have to ask for it as they tend to keep it at the counter with them since it is sold in small packets of 2 chewables. We have also gotten it at Sandbar, across from the ferry, just ask, they usually have some behind the bar specifically for people getting on the ferry. I think both dive shops (Aquatic Adventures, over Dinghy Dock and Culebra Divers by Sandbar) might have some too for people going out on their boats.

Good luck and hope she has a better boat ride back!

Thanks Sue! Got it at Milka's...I figured it would have been out with the other OTC medicine but I should have just asked...duh!

All the best,
Chris

You're welcome, glad you got it! I'm sure your Mother-in-law isn't dreading the return trip so much now.

We have 2 in our family that have some sea sickness, but Capt. Bill Penfield gave us the tip to take one dose of Dramamine the night before, then another dose 1 hour before your boat trip. It works like a charm for us!

Enjoy the rest of your stay!
