Hi XXXX,
Thanks for being on healthcaremagic.com.

Diligen is fine as a symptomatic treatment for dizziness if it is working well for you.Its good that the cause of dizziness has been detected(as you mentioned about the diagnosis of ENT related pathology).I hope you to improve soon with antibiotics and symptomatic treatment for dizziness.

Please maintain a good amount of hydration by having adequate fluids.It will help in recovery.

Brief Answer:
Few days.

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for being in follow-up.

You can take Diligen for a few days till the time your ear pathology settles down and brings relief to you in natural course of the disease.At that point,as your primary cause gets settled,you will not need Diligen on a regular basis.I hope it all goes well within a week,considering infectious cause of the ear disease(as your ENT specialist has prescribed antibiotics,infectious cause is likely).
Continue Diligen if it brings improvement to your symptoms and there is no need of an add-on medicine, as yet.

Nothing specific about fluids-plain water or juices will do.

If you have no further questions,please close the thread,rate it and write a review as your rating will be of help to me, else I shall be glad to have you in follow-up.
