If you’ve been suffering from nausea and vomiting caused by a condition like motion sickness, morning sickness or vertigo, you may have been prescribed cyclizine by your GP.

Cyclizine is an antihistamine which works by blocking chemicals in your brain that make you feel sick. 

It typically takes about 30 minutes to start having an effect, and you should feel better within 1 or 2 hours.

Factors That Affect How Long It takes to Work

The time it takes for cyclizine to kick in can vary from person to person, so it’s very important to follow the recommended dosage even if it doesn’t feel like it’s working as it should.

These factors include: 

  • Your age
  • Your weight
  • The speed of your metabolism
