There are several over-the-counter (OTC) medications that can help alleviate headache and nausea symptoms. For headaches, common OTC options include ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), acetaminophen (Tylenol), and aspirin. These medications work by reducing inflammation and pain. For nausea, OTC options include antacids such as bismuth subsalicylate (Pepto-Bismol) and simethicone (Gas-X), which can help to relieve stomach discomfort and bloating. Another option for nausea is antihistamines such as meclizine (Bonine, Dramamine) which can help to reduce the sensation of nausea. It's important to note that OTC medications can have side effects and may interact with other medications you're taking, so it's always best to read the label and follow the instructions carefully or consult with a healthcare professional before taking any OTC medication. Additionally, if you have a history of stomach ulcers or other gastrointestinal issues, you should consult with a healthcare professional before taking any OTC medications.
