Gringotts Ride/Motion Sickness

My 2 children and I loved Gringotts! Did not feel sick at all. I did not try FJ or Simpsons- thought it would be too much for me.
 
Gringotts is much more like Mummy than Simpsons. It is generally a moving on a track, with less simulated movement and more real movement.
No one in my family had problems with it.
That being said, we generally all take a meclizine each day for Universal - because there are so many rides that can cause motion sickness. After adopting this approach, we basically never get sick anymore.
 
How bad is this ride in terms of motion sickness (for those with that problem).

Any help appreciated.

I never get motion sickness, but my wonderful wife unfortunately seems to be the most prone-to-motion-sickness human ever to live on earth (she can't even sit in the passenger seat in the front seat of our van, she needs to drive or else motion sick), and yet she was able to enjoy the Gringott's ride without getting motion sick. She said there were several strong breezes of air during the ride that helped her get through it. In contrast, she went on the Simpsons ride and had to close her eyes three seconds after it started due to motion sickness.
 

I'm not prone to motion sickness but I did get a little dizzy on both FJ and the Simpsons. I loved FJ and Simpsons even though I had to close my eyes whenever there was a hint of a drop sensation. The second time I rode FJ I saw much more it. :) Never got a chance to go back to Simpsons because I was tricked into going on the Mummy, which shook me around way too much and I avoided any rides the rest of the day. I'm not a drop person---at all. The first drop in Gringotts is about all I can handle. After that, Gringotts felt like Haunted Mansion for me so I would not be worried if I was prone to motion sickness.
