Sea sickness not only sucks but it is dangerous.
The fatigue and as well as feeling sick can make you forget the basics and cause you to lose balance.
Sounds gross but if you do have to puke consider doing so straight onto your lap or between your legs. (You can always rinse off.)
DO NOT try to throw up over the side of your kayak! The dizziness and fatigue could make it very easy to fall in the water or capsize.
When your throwing up you don't have control over your breathing which could make it easy to drown while in the water.
With that said....
I used to always take Dramine before launching. Now I don't need to but always bring it with me. If I start feeling a little ill I sip water and eat snack crackers.
Keeping your head up and your eyes on the horizon or land should also help.
