What Causes Dizziness While On Scopolamine Transdermal Patch?
The Scopolamine transdermal patch has been in use for the past 24 hours +. The experience is that I am dizzier than before. I have since removed the patch and I am feeling better. What is your recommendation for the next move, to reduce my dizziness? John R.D. Beazley

Hi,
Among the side effects of Scopolamine transdermal patch, dizziness has been well described. Your symptoms may be a side effect of this drug. I will suggest you try the following:
- Observe symptoms for which you were prescribed Scopolamine transdermal patch. If persistence, you see Doctor for re-evaluation.
- Eat well and healthy
- Rest well
- Take enough fluids
Hope this will help. Let me know if I can assist you further. Wish you good health.
Regards,
Dr. Mbuomboh Veranso
