Many moons ago, our vet told us how to get a pup  or adult over car 
sickness.  It takes time but no meds are involved.   For a couple of days, get in 
the car with the dog and just sit there for 10 or  15 minutes.  Talk softly, 
scratch ears and make the dog  comfortable.    After a few days of staying 
still, put the dog in  the car with you and very slowly go a half a block - 
no more - then go back home  and sit in the car and do the loving for 10 
minutes.  After a few days, go  around the block.  Then gradually increase the 
speed and distance by a  couple of blocks.  It took us about a month but it 
totally cured the car  sickness without using meds and having side effects.  
If at any point  during the process the car sickness returns, back up a step 
and work from the  distance that was comfortable for a few extra days.  
Just gradually  increase distance and speed.  Good luck!
