Therefore, this study aimed to formulate a new meclizine and pyridoxine combination formula for chewable tablets and provide rapid drug absorption and decrease motion sickness. The new chewable formulation has been prepared to provide fast action, is more acceptable, and could be used for all age categories. Seven trials haves been carried out to prepare to find the suitable one where formula 7 of the chewable gum preparation exhibited good taste and hardness, while the gelatin formulation give an accepted formula after four trials with better taste and good acceptance. The prepared formulations give a dissolution profile of meclizine (95.53–102.8%) and pyridoxine (99.25 ± 115%) and assay (98 + 0.05–99.3 ± 0.8%) for meclizine and (97 ± 0.9–100.0 ± 0.08%) for the pyridoxine in three prepared formulations of chewable tablets. Followed by the evaluation, the formulation and testing them on human volunteers are carried out to confirm their effect to ensure acceptance and fast actions.
