    Explanation & Rationale

    A. Dimenhydrinate is an antihistamine commonly used to treat motion sickness by reducing the stimulation of the vestibular system. B. Metoclopramide is not used for motion sickness. Its primary use is for nausea and vomiting caused by conditions such as gastroparesis or chemotherapy, as it works by enhancing gastrointestinal motility. C. Scopolamine is specifically indicated for motion sickness. It acts as an anticholinergic to reduce the effects of motion on the vestibular system. D. Ondansetron is not used for motion sickness. It is a serotonin antagonist primarily used to treat nausea and vomiting associated with chemotherapy, radiation, or postoperative recovery.
