Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have read your query in detail and understand your concern. There can be multiple causes of dizziness. To list a few, the causes can be hypertension, hypotension, anxiety, stress, hypothyroidism, hypoglycemia, and heart abnormalities. Now, we need to rule out the cause among these in order to reach a conclusion. This can be established with a few very basic tests like blood sugar, ECG (echocardiography), and thyroid function tests. Once the abnormality is detected, treatment can be started and you will be cured.

But for now, I suggest taking the following medications.

1. Tablet Diziron D (Cinnarizine 20 mg and Dimenhydrinate 40 mg) one tablet twice daily.

2. Tablet Vertin 16 mg (Betahistine 8 mg) one tablet thrice daily.

In the meantime, I advise you to get the tests done. Please share the reports with me or your local physician.

Hope this helps. Kindly revert in case of further queries.
