Brief Answer:
seems to BPPV (benign paroxymal positional vertigo).

Detailed Answer:


Hi,


I had gone through your question and understand your concerns that you are having vertigo. I would like to ask you few more details.

Is there any ear pain or ear discharge or hearing loss ?
Is your vertigo episodic or continuous ?


Kindly get back to me with the details.

Based on your clinical details, it occurs to be BPPV (benign paroxymal positional vertigo) or fluctuation in blood sugar or BP or due to ear infection (labrynthitis).


I suggest you to consult ent surgeon, give detailed history (drug induced), ent examination, otoscopy (status of ear drum), blood tests (blood sugar, serum electrolytes), vestibular tests (to differentiate central from peripheral vertigo), BP monitoring and if necessary ct scan of brain. Depending on the examination findings, treatment can be started.

As such, meclizine do work on vertigo episodes. Before that, one should be evaluated for the cause of vertigo.

Hope this answers your question, if you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Wishing you good health.
