I'm trying to source the other stuff you need for SN (I have the SN) but I'm noticing that most of it seems to be 'presicription only' stuff. Just curious how you guys normally get this stuff. Do you actually get a prescription for it (and, if so, how?) or do you go about it in other ways? Alternate sellers maybe? I'm in the UK for clarification. And if I can do everything online that'd, naturally, be ideal!

1. Antiemetic
From what I understand, this is a prescription-only kind of thing. Any tips of how to get this? I've heard Metoclopramideis the most popular.

2. Antacid
The most common antacid I know of is Gaviscon, I feel like I could probably get this in a chemist or online quite easily. I assume anyway. Would this be powerful enough though? Or do I need something stronger?

3. Pain killers
Again, I think I have some Ibuprofen already. Don't know how much I'd need, but I assume I could buy it in a chemist or online. So I think this one's sorted, right?

4. Sedatives
Don't know much about sedatives. Looking online I'm seeing Sominex. Would that be good? Any suggestions on this one?

5. Beta Blockers
This one I have no clue for. I assume it's a over the counter thing?

Also, if you happen to know how much to take and when, that'd be really useful info too!!

Thanks for any help anyone can provide. :)

Apparently the new ppeh claims that antacids and beta blockers have been taken out of the regimen. benzos/sedatives for me personally are quite important as it would help you relax and with SI. Antiemetics are also quite important to decrease vomiting

Beta blockers are typically prescription only as well. They're used (in this case, for CTB) to keep your heart calm/heart rate low, as typically during the last few moments before you CTB, you're anxious/nervous. They're not necessary to my understanding.

I've heard some people lied to get prescriptions for things, but that seems risky to me and there's no guarantee you'll be prescribed exactly what you need for the method. I'd be wary of using anything that isn't on an "SN" list somewhere, medications can conflict in terrible ways, and you might not be getting what you need.

The recommended sedatives are "benzos" and there are some you can get (online) without prescription in the US. I don't know about the UK, but I imagine it's similar. You can try searching for Bromazolam.

I'm still trying to find antiemetics myself...

Gaviscon and Ibuprofen you can easily get over the counter (I've done so for both myself). I've only ever tried Gaviscon though while I was suffering from heartburn and later on Acid Reflux Disease. I personally found Gaviscon to be useless, I wouldn't even bother with it for taking SN. Sounds like an antiemetic would prove to be more effective.

I have an idea on how one might get an antiemetic from their GP, but I've never tried it myself. Just tell your doctor you've been throwing up after being driven for long periods of time, and say that you've also tried the techniques in this link and that they haven't worked (https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/motion-sickness/). Sometimes they'll prescribe you medication for treating motion sickness, hopefully they'll be an antiemetic.

Beta Blockers I think you'll have a very difficult time trying to get lying to your GP though. They usually only prescribe those to people suffering from various heart conditions.

What country are you from? I'm from the UK, it's very easy to get ibuprofen over the counter. Although I still wouldn't recommend it over paracetamol, ibuprofen just seems to upset your digestive tract far too easily if you already have any problems with your digestive tract like stomach ulcers.
