Hi,
Positional vertigo is a symptom. It may be due to different causes. Among these causes are also possible inflammation of the vestibular nerve for which Methylprednisolone is used. So if the doctor thinks that as a possible cause it is commonly prescribed.
As for the travel sickness tab that is to address the symptom and alleviate it, so can be used independently of the cause. As for the orange juice it can safely be used with those.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
