HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Labyrinthitis is one of the common causes of vertigo.Like the other causes, it is related to the inner ear.
In general the medications are only used for a short period of time.
This is because, prolonged use of medication is thought to affect the ability of brain to compensate.
The kalms herbal treatment should be ok to used but you may want to consult with your doctor first.
I hope this helps
