Oh, and the suggestion to pre-hydrate well right before showering. We never thought of that and it’s worth trying on his shower day.

These and more tips can also be found in the Bateman publications such as
The ME/CFS Crash Survival Guide
But as you already noticed with the dxm recommendation, it’s always a good idea to double check with s4me.

Your son might also find good ear plugs helpful during the travel.
Starting here we have some discussion about the terrific Honeywell Maxlite ear plugs:
This links to a pack of 200, but there are also smaller packages if you search a bit.

Last but not least, we have a thread on different resources for carers of severe pwME.
I‘m a big fan of this guide:

It’s good to be able to come on here and cross reference what the evidence says about these supplements.

Or, if there are no studies, trials should be done to back up the claims.
