Help with Vertigo ## will adavert help vertico? ## Were you meaning to ask about the medication Antivert? If so, yes it can be used to help with vertigo symptoms. It contains the active ingredient Meclizine, which is an antihistamine that's commonly used to treat nausea and dizziness. It is also available over the counter in 25mg dosages to treat motion sickness, this OTC dosage is most commonly found available under the brand name Bonine and some medications sites will list the actual active ingredient as Meclozine, so please don't be confused and think it's the wrong medication if that's what you see listed. Are there any questions or comments? More Meclizine details can be found here.

Dizziness, not stable when walking, bend over I am dizzy. Afraid of falling. Wonder if adavert would help? ## Have you consulted a doctor? The real concern here is what might be causing your problem.

Orthostatic Hypotension can sometimes be caused by blood pressure medications or by being dehydrated. If this is the case, it is very important that you rectify the situation. More details:
