Bonine is approved for use in children as young as 12 years old. It is not approved for use in younger children. Your child's healthcare provider can recommend a better treatment option for motion sickness or vertigo for your child. Bonine for Kids (which contains cyclizine hydrochloride) is a good option for children ages six years and older.

Off-Label Uses for Bonine

On occasion, your healthcare provider may recommend Bonine for something other than the approved uses (this would be known as an "off-label" use). Using Bonine to treat nausea and vomiting due to other causes (such as morning sickness) is considered to be an off-label use (see Meclizine and Pregnancy for more information about using Bonine during pregnancy). Treating vertigo is another off-label use for this product.
