Antivertigo Drugs

There are two general types of drugs used to treat symptoms of vertigo, nausea and vomiting: antivertigo and antiemetic drugs. Antiemetic drugs are discussed in the next section. Antivertigo drugs are vestibular suppressants that attempt to control the sensation of vertigo as well as associated nausea and vomiting. Vestibular suppressants are often used in conjunction with antiemetics.

How They Work

1

FIGURE 1 (adapted2)

The precise method of action behind many of these drugs is not fully understood; however, the general consensus is that vestibular suppressants act on the neurotransmitters responsible for carrying the vestibular signal from primary vestibular neurons. That is, these drugs seek to block the conduction of impulses from the semicircular canals and otolith organs, before these nerve impulses reach central vestibular structres, and thereby maintain tone in the vestibular nuclei.

    Types of Drugs

  • Antihistamines
  • Anticholinergics
  • Benzodiazepines

Common Uses

Acute Vertiginous Attacks

1

The most salient point to consider when using antivertigo drugs to treat acute vertiginous attacks is whether or not the attacks last long enough for the medication to be effective; if an effective blood level is not reached before the attack ends, antivertigo medication will be unsuccessful. This means brief episodes of vertigo, such as BPPV and VBI, cannot be controlled with the use of vestibular suppressants taken at the onset of the attack.

It can take upwards of 2 hours to reach peak blood levels, so acute attacks lasting at least an hour are the best candidates for vestibular suppressants taken at the onset of symptoms. For example, antihistamines need 20 – 30 mintures to initiate action, and reach maximum effectiveness after 1 – 2 hours. Antihistamine vestibular suppressants typically have a half life of 8 hours.

Chronic Vertiginous Attacks

1

Patients experiencing frequent vestibular attacks lasting less than an hour are not without recourse. When the episodes are moderate-to-severe and recur often, prophylactic treatment may be a viable short term option. “Short term” must be emphasized, as long term use of vestibular suppressants can impede/slow central compensation (and thus recovery) in two main ways:

  1. The stronger suppressants have stronger sedative effects, which delay the return to normal mobility, which in turns slows compensation.
  2. As their name implies, vestibular suppressants “suppress” vestibular signals from the labyrinth, which interferes with the tonic rebalancing inherent to central compensation.

Vestibular suppressants do have their place, however. Patients with acute peripheral vestibular impairment (with vertigo) may require strong vestibular suppressants, but these should be withdrawn gradually once vomiting stops to allow compensation. Such a patient may be switched to milder suppressants to control vertigo throughout the day, coupled with symptomatic use of antiemetic drugs. Because the milder suppressants allow for routine activities, drugs such as scopolamine and meclizine are well suited for motion sickness.

Chronic Dizziness

1

Note the preceding two sections specifically state vertiginious attacks. Chronic (or other) dizziness of non-vestibular origin is not appropriate for treatment with vestibular suppressants. Antivertigo drugs cannot control non-vestibular dizziness.

Side Effects and Contraindications

1

Potential Side Effects of Antivertigo Drugs

  • Drowsiness
    • especially in the elderly
  • Withdrawal Symptoms (especially with benzodiazepines and scopolamine)
    • dizziness
    • nausea
    • vomitting
    • headaches
    • disequilibrium
    • general seizures (with abrupt withdrawal of benzodiazepines)
  • Habituation and Dependence (with benzodiazepines)
  • Altered mental state and hallucinations
    • possible with scopolamine use in the elderly

Contraindications and Precautions of Antivertigo Drugs

This list should not be considered exhaustive.

  • Do not take these medications with alcohol
    • potential for additive effects
  • Scopolomine should not be used with children
    • side effects are more profound in these populations
  • Do not use benzodiazepines in children under 6 months or pregnant or nursing women
  • increased risk of birth defects
  • Antihistamines are contraindicated in patients with:
    • asthma
    • emphysema
    • chronic pulmonary disease
    • difficulty urinating due to enlarged prostate
  • All anticholinergic medications should be used with care in patients with:
    • glaucoma
    • pyloric obstruction
    • urinary bladder neck obstruction with intestinal obstruction
    • other CNS depressant drug use

Implications for Vestibular Testing

It goes without saying that vestibular suppressants will interfere with vestibular testing; activated end organs will be unable to transmit vestibular signals for central processing. Additionally, the sedating effects of some antivertigo drugs can render patients unable to perform tasks required for oculomotor testing. Poor pursuit and saccade results, as well as inability to task, may be the result of impaired concentration from sedative effects. Drugs that act as central nervous system depressants can also effect vestibular testing, as central pathways will not function properly. For these reasons, it is important to coordinate with prescribing physicians to ensure the patient is not under the influence of these medications during vestibular testing.

Scopolamine Transdermal Patch: MedlinePlus Drug Information

Scopolamine comes as a patch to be placed on the hairless skin behind your ear. When used to help prevent nausea and vomiting caused by motion sickness, apply the patch at least 4 hours before its effects will be needed and leave in place for up to 3 days. If treatment is needed for longer than 3 days to help prevent nausea and vomiting caused by motion sickness, remove the current patch and apply a new patch behind the other ear. When used to prevent nausea and vomiting from medications used with surgery, apply the patch as directed by your doctor and leave it in place for 24 hours after your surgery. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Use the scopolamine patch exactly as directed.

To apply the patch, follow these instructions:

  1. After washing the area behind the ear, wipe the area with a clean, dry tissue to ensure that the area is dry. Avoid placing on areas of your skin that have cuts, pain, or tenderness.
  2. Remove the patch from its protective pouch. Peel off the clear plastic protective strip and discard it. Don’t touch the exposed adhesive layer with your fingers.
  3. Place the adhesive side against the skin.
  4. After you have placed the patch behind your ear, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water.

Do not cut the patch.

Limit contact with water while swimming and bathing because it may cause the patch may fall off. If the scopolamine patch falls off, discard the patch, and apply a new one on the hairless area behind the other ear.

When the scopolamine patch is no longer needed, remove the patch and fold it in half with the sticky side together and dispose of it. Wash your hands and the area behind your ear thoroughly with soap and water to remove any traces of scopolamine from the area. If a new patch needs to be applied, place a fresh patch on the hairless area behind your other ear.

If you have used scopolamine patches for several days or longer, you may experience withdrawal symptoms that could start 24 hours or more after removing the scopolamine patch such as difficulty with balance, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, stomach cramps, sweating, headache, confusion, muscle weakness, slow heart rate or low blood pressure. Call your doctor right away if your symptoms become severe.

Ask your pharmacist or doctor for a copy of the manufacturer’s information for the patient.

Cinnarizine: drowsy antihistamine used for travel sickness and vertigo

If you buy cinnarizine from a pharmacy or supermarket, follow the instructions that come with the packet, or ask a pharmacist for advice.

If you or your child have been prescribed cinnarizine, follow your doctor’s instructions about how and when to take it.

It’s a good idea to take your cinnarizine tablets after a meal. It will be less likely to upset your stomach.

You can suck or chew the tablets, or swallow the tablets whole with a drink of water.

Dosage and strength

Cinnarizine comes as 15mg tablets. Your dose will depend on why you’re taking it.

For travel sickness

Adults and children aged 12 years or older – take 2 tablets 2 hours before travel, then 1 tablet every 8 hours during the journey if needed.

Children aged 5 to 11 years – give 1 tablet 2 hours before travel, then half a tablet every 8 hours during the journey if needed.

For dizziness and sickness caused by inner ear problems

Adults and children aged 12 years or older – the usual dose is 2 tablets, taken 3 times a day.

Children aged 5 to 11 years – the usual dose is 1 tablet, taken 3 times a day.

What if I take too much?

Taking too much cinnarizine can make you very sleepy or confused, feel sick or be sick, feel weak or shaky, or give you a very fast, uneven or pounding heartbeat (palpitations).

Too much cinnarizine can give a child a fit or seizure.

If you need to go to A&E, do not drive yourself – get someone else to drive you or call for an ambulance.

Take the cinnarizine packet or leaflet inside it, plus any remaining medicine, with you.

What if I forget my medicine?

If you forget to take a dose of cinnarizine, take it as soon as you remember. Unless it’s nearly time for your next dose. In which case, skip the missed dose and take your next dose at the usual time.

It’s important to leave at least 8 hours between doses. Do not take 2 doses at the same time. Never take an extra dose to make up for a forgotten one.

If you forget doses often, it may help to set an alarm to remind you. You could also ask a pharmacist for advice on other ways to help you remember to take your medicine.

Home Epley Maneuver | Johns Hopkins Medicine

What is the home Epley maneuver?

The home Epley maneuver is a type of exercise help that helps to treat the symptoms of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). You can do this exercise at home.

BPPV is caused by a problem in your inner ear. Your semicircular canals are found inside your ear. They detect motion and send this information to your brain. The utricle is a nearby part of the ear. It contains calcium crystals (canaliths) that help it detect movement.

Sometimes these crystals detach from the utricle and end up inside the semicircular canals. When these crystals move inside the canals, they may send incorrect signals to your brain about your position. This can make you feel like the world is spinning. This is called vertigo.

Dr. John Epley designed a series of movements to dislodge the crystals from the semicircular canals. These movements bring the crystals back to the utricle, where they belong. This treats the symptoms of vertigo.

The original Epley maneuver was designed to be done with a healthcare provider. The home Epley maneuver is similar. These are a series of movements that you can do without help, in your own home.

Why might I need the home Epley maneuver?

You may need to try the home Epley maneuver if you have symptoms of BPPV. In BPPV, vertigo may come on with certain head movements. It may last for up to a minute. These symptoms may be more frequent at times. You may also have nausea and vomiting.

Often BPPV happens without any known cause. Sometimes there is a cause. Causes of BPPV can include:

  • A head injury
  • Problems after ear surgery

The home Epley maneuver is safe and inexpensive. It often works well to treat the symptoms of BPPV.

Your healthcare provider may suggest the home Epley maneuver if your health history and physical exam support that you have BBPV.  Your healthcare provider may also suggest that you see a vestibular therapist for treatment.

Your healthcare provider may first do the original Epley maneuver in his or her office. He or she may teach you the home Epley maneuver. You may need to do the home Epley maneuver if you still have symptoms after you leave your healthcare provider’s office. It may also be useful to know how to do this maneuver if your BPPV comes back after a few months or years.

What are the risks of home Epley maneuver?

The home Epley maneuver is safe. It may be helpful to have someone at home with you while you go through the movements. This can give you peace of mind in case your vertigo gets worse in the middle of the treatment.

People with health conditions that limit their ability to move may not be able to do the home Epley maneuver safely. These issues can include neck or back disease, vascular conditions, and retinal detachment. Ask your healthcare provider if the home Epley maneuver is safe for you.

How do I get ready for the home Epley maneuver?

You can do the home Epley maneuver on a bed. You start by sitting on the bed. You need to have a pillow in place so that when you lie back it will be under your shoulders.

What happens during the home Epley maneuver?

You may find it helpful to watch a video of the home Epley maneuver first. Or read a brochure with pictures.

Your healthcare provider will tell how often to do this procedure. He or she may ask you to do it 3 times a day until your symptoms have been gone for 24 hours. Your healthcare provider will also tell if your right or left ear is causing your symptoms.

Follow these steps if the problem is with your right ear:

  • Start by sitting on a bed.
  • Turn your head 45 degrees to the right.
  • Quickly lie back, keeping your head turned. Your shoulders should now be on the pillow, and your head should be reclined. Wait 30 seconds.
  • Turn your head 90 degrees to the left, without raising it. Your head will now be looking 45 degrees to the left. Wait another 30 seconds.
  • Turn your head and body another 90 degrees to the left, into the bed. Wait another 30 seconds.
  • Sit up on the left side.

Follow these steps if the problem is with your left ear:

  • Start by sitting on a bed.
  • Turn your head 45 degrees to the left.
  • Quickly lie back, keeping your head turned. Your shoulders should now be on the pillow, and your head should be reclined. Wait 30 seconds.
  • Turn your head 90 degrees to the right, without raising it. Your head will now be looking 45 degrees to the right. Wait another 30 seconds.
  • Turn your head and body another 90 degrees to the right, into the bed. Wait another 30 seconds.
  • Sit up on the right side.

What happens after the home Epley maneuver?

Most people say their symptoms go away right after they do the maneuver. In some cases, it may take a few times for the procedure to work. Some people may have mild symptoms for a couple of weeks. Once your symptoms go away, there is no need to keep doing the maneuver.

Your healthcare provider may suggest avoiding certain positions for a while after your symptoms have gone away. For instance, you may need to sleep propped up on 2 pillows, to keep your neck from extending straight.

If you still have symptoms after doing the home Epley maneuver, call your healthcare provider. You may not be doing the maneuver the right way. Or you may have another problem that’s causing your symptoms of vertigo. The home Epley maneuver only works to treat vertigo from BPPV. But many other conditions can cause vertigo.

You should be able to be active after doing the home Epley maneuver. Make sure your vertigo has really gone away before doing anything dangerous, such as driving.

With the help of the home Epley maneuver, your vertigo may go away for weeks or even years. BPPV often comes back, though. This might happen if another calcium crystal ends up in your semicircular canals. If your vertigo comes back, do home Epley maneuver again to see if your symptoms go away. If the maneuver doesn’t work, call your healthcare provider.

90,000 Betahistine for dizziness symptoms | Cochrane

Review question

Does betahistine help patients with dizziness developing for various reasons?

Relevance

Dizziness is a symptom in which people experience a false sensation of movement. This type of vertigo is thought to be related to disturbances in the inner ear, the organ responsible for balance or the structures that connect it to the brain.Many people suffer from the symptom of vertigo and it can cause serious problems with normal / daily activities. Betahistine is a drug that possibly works by improving blood flow in the inner ear. This review investigated whether betahistine is more effective than placebo (dummy drug) in treating the symptoms of dizziness caused by various causes in patients of all ages.

Research characteristics

We included 17 studies with a total of 1025 participants.Sixteen studies involving 953 people compared betahistine with placebo. The risk of bias in these studies ranged from high to unclear. All studies with data amenable to analysis lasted three months or less. One study with a high risk of bias comparing betahistine versus placebo enrolled 72 people with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). All patients were also treated with particle repositioning maneuvers. Overall, we rated the quality of the evidence to be low.

The studies varied significantly in terms of the types of participants, their diagnoses, the dose of betahistine prescribed and the duration of drug use, the study methods, and how any relief of dizziness symptoms was measured.

Highlights

When summarizing all studies, the proportion of patients who reported relief of symptoms of dizziness was significantly higher in patients taking betahistine than in patients taking placebo.However, there is significant inconsistency in the research results, so this result should be treated with caution.

The proportion of patients reporting side effects of treatment was similar in both groups: 16% in patients taking betahistine and 15% in patients taking placebo. Overall, 16% of patients in both groups dropped out of the study.

Not enough information was provided on the effect of betahistine on objective indicators of the functioning of the organ responsible for balance in the inner ear.No information was provided on the effect of betahistine on overall quality of life and incidence.

Quality of evidence

After evaluating the included studies, we rated the quality of the evidence as low. This means that our estimate of the effectiveness of betahistine may be inaccurate. This evidence is current to September 2015.

Conclusions

Low quality evidence suggests that betahistine may help relieve dizziness symptoms in patients suffering from dizziness from a variety of causes.Betahistine is generally well tolerated. Further research on dizziness symptom management should use a more rigorous methodology and include outcomes (results) that are important to patients and their families.

With hypertension due to prolonged systolic overload of the left ventricle, its hypertrophy develops. This leads to a deviation of the electrical axis to the left and back from the normal position. In the left chest leads, the P wave increases, the S — T segment shifts downward and the T wave decreases or becomes negative. The ECG in stage III of hypertension is characterized by even more than in stage II B, deviation of the electrical axis to the left, changes in the S-T segment and the T wave.Deceleration of intraventricular conduction is often determined by the type of blockade of the left anterior or two left branches of the atrioventricular bundle.

90,000 Dizzy: Medicines Used in Treatment

Dizziness is a general term that generally denotes weakness, lack of clarity of consciousness, loss of balance or sensation of rotation.

General

Dizziness attacks usually do not pose a great threat to health, but sometimes they can be based on serious disorders (stroke, brain tumor, anemia).Mild dizziness, occurring in the form of episodes of confusion, confusion, can occur when the head is turned in different directions, when the position of the head changes, and also when a person gets out of a chair or bed. Such attacks of dizziness last no more than a minute. More severe vertigo can last for minutes, hours, or even days and is accompanied by symptoms such as loss of balance (with risk of falls), unsteady gait, hearing impairment, nausea, ringing in the ears, and blurred vision.During such an attack, you may feel a sharp weakness, as if you could faint. Such attacks occur with diseases of the inner ear, anxiety, hyperventilation.

Some people feel dizzy when they rise too quickly from a sitting or horizontal position. This type of dizziness, which occurs when changing position, is also called orthostatic hypotension and is caused by a sharp outflow of blood from the brain during a sharp change in position.At the same time, the pressure in the vessels supplying the brain decreases rather quickly. To avoid this condition, you need to get up not abruptly, gradually. Before getting up, sit on the edge of a bed or chair to find a fulcrum. When lifting, the muscles of the legs should be tense, so that more blood will flow to the brain.

There are other causes of dizziness. These include dehydration, high blood pressure, heart disease, and anxiety. Be sure to tell your doctor if you have hypertension or heart disease or feel dizzy.

If you have problems maintaining balance, it becomes difficult to walk straight and straight. There is a feeling that your feet are unsteady on the ground, and that you are about to fall. This type of balance disorder is a serious hazard, as there is a high risk of injury if you fall. Impaired balance is often caused by age-related changes in the vestibular apparatus of the inner ear (labyrinth), decreased sensitivity of the balance receptors of the lower extremities and their joints, arthritis, and poor vision.See your doctor if you feel unable to maintain your balance or lose your sense of support. To protect yourself from falling, do not turn off the lights at night, remove the carpets, because you can trip over them, walk with a cane or a special stick.

With systemic dizziness, there is a sensation of rotation, whirling, twisting of the surrounding objects. This can also cause nausea, vomiting and flies before the eyes. This type of dizziness is usually temporary, does not pose a great danger to life, but is caused by a disturbance in the semicircular canals of the inner ear, which are responsible for maintaining balance.Such disorders include labyrinthitis, benign positional vertigo, and Meniere’s disease.

What makes your head spin more often

  • A sharp rise from a sitting or lying position
  • Hunger, stress, high temperature
  • Diseases of the visual apparatus
  • Certain medicines, alcohol
  • A sharp rise to a great height (in an airplane), because at high altitudes, the oxygen content in the air is less than on the ground.
  • Motion sickness.

Dizziness can be a sign of more serious medical conditions:

  • Anemia
  • Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)
  • Heart disease
  • Temporary partial blockade of blood flow in the arteries supplying the brain
  • Heavy blow to the head
  • Subdural hemorrhage (bleeding in the space between the membranes covering the brain)
  • Brain tumor

Symptoms

  • Periodic dizziness and feeling of disorientation, weakness when getting out of bed.
  • Imbalance, a feeling of circling objects around, lasting more than three days.
  • Imbalance with nausea and vomiting.
  • A feeling of disorientation in space associated with fever, hearing loss, ringing in the ears, or pain in the ear.
  • A feeling of disorientation in space with a head injury or severe headache.
  • Dizziness with feeling of numbness, weakness in the limbs and involuntary urination and defecation.
  • Dizziness and flies before the eyes or double vision, hearing loss, slurred speech
  • Loss of balance with symptoms of shock (rapid pulse, rapid shallow breathing, cold, damp to the touch, pale face).
  • Loss of balance and feeling of pressure or chest pain.

What can you do when you feel dizzy

If an attack of dizziness begins when you stand up quickly, do it slowly, slowly.If you are currently feeling dizzy, sit up slowly and assume a reclining position. This makes it less likely that you will fall and injure yourself. If you feel that you may pass out, or your eyes become dark, sit with your head between your knees.

Drink plenty of fluids to stay hydrated and maintain normal blood pressure.

Give up alcohol, caffeine, smoking. Don’t drive.

Relaxation techniques can be used to overcome anxiety. Breathe slowly and deeply.

If you feel the approach of an attack of dizziness, do not close your eyes and focus your vision on any one stationary object. This can help reduce the intensity of the discomfort.

If your family members also feel dizzy, have a headache, or complain of nausea or vomiting, this could be due to carbon dioxide poisoning.Go outside immediately and seek help from a hospital.

Consult a physician if dizziness persists, recurs frequently, becomes more intense, or is accompanied by visual impairment, hearing impairment, numbness or weakness in the arms and legs.

What a doctor can do

The doctor can determine the immediate cause of the dizziness and prescribe appropriate medications (for example, antiemetic or antihistamines). If your doctor discovers any serious health problems that are causing you dizziness, he or she may refer you to an appropriate specialist.

Heading health: everything about dizziness

Dizziness is one of the most frequent and at the same time one of the most “unloved” complaints by doctors. Dizziness is a fairly common condition, it is detected in about 5% of patients during general medical examinations and in about 10% of patients during examinations by otorhinolaryngologists and neurologists.

Vertigo is always a symptom and never a disease. At least 80 diseases have been described that have dizziness as a possible symptom, so it is probably not surprising that in about 40% of cases, a clear and definite diagnosis is not made.

The fact is that dizziness can be a symptom of a wide variety of neurological and mental diseases, diseases of the cardiovascular system, eyes and ear.

What is vertigo?
Since patients can call a variety of sensations “dizziness”, it is necessary first of all to clarify the nature of these sensations.They usually fall into one of four categories.

A. Vestibular dizziness (true dizziness) is usually caused by damage to parts of the vestibular system. It is manifested by the illusion of movement of one’s own body or surrounding objects. This creates sensations of spinning, falling, tilting or swaying. Acute dizziness is often accompanied by autonomic symptoms (nausea, vomiting, increased sweating), fear, imbalance, and nystagmus (oscillatory movements of the eyeballs).

B. Fainting and light-headedness. These terms denote a temporary loss of consciousness or the feeling of impending loss of consciousness. In a light-headed state, there is often increased sweating, nausea, fear, and darkening of the eyes. The immediate cause of fainting is a drop in cerebral blood flow below the level necessary to supply the brain with glucose and oxygen. Fainting and light-headedness usually develop against the background of arterial hypotension, heart disease, or as a result of autonomic reactions, and the tactics for these conditions are completely different than with vestibular dizziness.

B. Imbalance is characterized by instability, shaky (“drunk”) gait, but not true dizziness. The cause of this condition is damage to various parts of the nervous system that provide spatial coordination.

G. Vague sensations, often described as dizziness, occur with emotional disorders (neuroses). Patients usually complain of “fog in the head”, a feeling of slight intoxication, lightheadedness or fear of falling.These sensations are quite distinct from sensations in vestibular dizziness, fainting and imbalance. Since any dizziness, regardless of its cause, can cause anxiety, it cannot serve as proof of the psychogenic nature of the disease.

What can be accompanied by dizziness?
Dizziness is often accompanied by hearing loss and tinnitus if a hearing aid is involved. Quite often, dizziness is accompanied by vibrations of the eyeballs (nystagmus).

I often have dizziness in transport and at altitude. Why is this happening?
Motion sickness is caused by an unusual acceleration of the body or a mismatch between information coming to the brain from the vestibular and visual systems. For a person in a closed cabin of a ship or in the back seat of a moving car, vestibular information creates a sensation of acceleration, while visual information indicates the relative immobility of surrounding objects.The motion sickness is reduced with a sufficient panoramic view to make sure that the movement is real. Visually caused dizziness occurs when observing moving objects – due to a mismatch of visual information with the vestibular (for example, when a person watches a movie with a car chase).

Altitude dizziness is a common phenomenon that occurs when the distance between a person and the stationary objects they observe exceeds a certain critical value.The often observed fear of heights hinders adaptation.

Can medicines cause dizziness?
Many medications can make you feel dizzy. Most often these are some anticonvulsants, tranquilizers, antibiotics, and alcohols (alcohol).

After a traumatic brain injury, dizziness lasts for a long time. When will it pass?
Despite the fact that the vestibular apparatus is protected by a bone sheath, its thin membranes are easily damaged by injury.Uncomplicated concussion is associated with dizziness in more than 20% of cases. Vestibular dizziness, nausea, and vomiting may occur immediately after injury. The dizziness is persistent. Symptoms are aggravated by sudden head movements. In most cases, spontaneous improvement occurs within 2 months. after injury, and within 2 years – almost all. The trauma case is always special, it should be borne in mind that while the legal proceedings are ongoing, recovery is slower.

My dizziness occurs only in a certain position of the head and lasts for seconds. What is it?
Benign positional vertigo is probably the most common vestibular disorder. Dizziness in this case appears only when moving or changing the position of the head, especially when it bends back and forth. This condition often occurs when the patient turns over from his back to one side and suddenly, at a certain position of the head, he feels that “the room has gone.”Vertigo usually lasts for a few seconds. Often, patients know in what position of the head it occurs. There are many reasons for this condition.

What to do in case of persistent dizziness?
Since head movements and external stimuli increase dizziness, the patient is recommended to lie in a darkened room for 1-2 days. Fixation of the gaze reduces nystagmus and dizziness in some types of vestibular disorders. Often, the condition improves – and even to a greater extent than when lying with closed eyes – if patients fix their gaze on some closely located object (for example, in a painting or a finger raised up).Since mental stress increases dizziness, it is advisable to combine gaze fixation with methods of mental relaxation. The person feels seriously ill and is afraid of repeated attacks of dizziness. In such a situation, it is important to reassure the patient by convincing him that most acute vestibular disorders are not dangerous and pass quickly. It should also be explained that within a few days the nervous system will adjust to the imbalance between the vestibular organs and the dizziness will stop.Vestibular gymnastics, which stimulates the central compensatory processes, begins a few days after the acute manifestations subside.

Which medicine is better to take in case of acute dizziness?
Dizziness often comes on suddenly. For an accurate diagnosis of the cause, a doctor’s consultation and additional examinations are required. Today there are highly effective diagnostic tests, as well as drugs used to treat dizziness, motion sickness, tinnitus (Betaserc, etc.). Dizziness can be cured and let your head spin only from success!

Be healthy!

What is dizziness, possible causes

Dizziness (vertigo) is an alarming symptom that accompanies a variety of diseases. Depending on the severity of the manifestations, a person may feel discomfort, disorientation in space, and nausea.In rare cases, dizziness is so strong that the patient loses consciousness, cannot stand on his own feet. The symptom is widespread among people of different genders and ages, but is especially common among the elderly and women.

Causes of dizziness

There are two groups of reasons why the head is spinning: physiological (caused by the natural state of the body) and pathological (caused by a disease).

Physiological factors

Among them:

  • abrupt start of movement, for example, a jump from a height;
  • oversaturation of the lungs with oxygen;
  • severe fright;
  • low level of hemoglobin in the blood;
  • insufficient nutrition or prolonged periods without food;
  • menstruation, menopause, or pregnancy (the main reason women feel dizzy).

Meteosensitivity is distinguished into a separate group of physiological factors. Around the world, a huge number of people complain about feeling unwell due to the weather. Violations cause changes in humidity, temperature, changes in atmospheric pressure before a blizzard or thunderstorm.

Pathological factors

Among them:

1. Ear diseases. Any disturbance in the vestibular apparatus can lead to the fact that the person will be constantly dizzy.For example, labyrinthitis – septic inflammation of the inner ear – provokes severe dizziness. The patient has a fever, headache, regular vomiting.

2. Pathology of the cervical spine. Diseases such as osteochondrosis, hernias, and whiplash injuries lead to impaired blood supply to the brain. This is one of the reasons why you feel dizzy.

3. Various phobias. Fear of heights, open spaces, and crowds can cause dizziness.Sometimes a person feels bad only from the thought of his fear.

4. Vascular pathologies. Ischemia, strokes, thrombosis cause cerebral hypoxia. Chronic oxygen starvation causes frequent dizziness.

5. Neuritis. The vestibulocochlear structure is affected, which transmits information from the vestibular apparatus directly to the brain. With neuritis, the dizziness may subside and worsen, accompanied by wandering headaches.

6. Meniere’s disease. In 5–8% of cases, this pathology is the cause of dizziness. Meniere’s disease is characterized by an increase in the volume of endolymph, which accumulates inside the labyrinth. The fluid creates excessive pressure in the inner ear, edema develops, and the work of the vestibular nerve is disrupted. The head is spinning in short fits, sporadically. The main symptom is accompanied by hearing loss, tinnitus.

7. Intoxication. When your head starts to spin sharply, it can be a symptom of poisoning with chemicals, food, various poisonous substances.Mercury, arsenic, lead are especially dangerous for the brain.

8. Brain tumors. The neoplasm in the process of growth compresses the surrounding tissues and disrupts their trophism.

9. Microstrokes. Transient cerebrovascular accident worsens the trophism of cerebral structures. Dizziness with a microstroke is strong, pronounced, accompanied by a sharp headache, paresis, speech disorders. An episode can last for several hours and requires urgent treatment.

10. Head injuries. Dizziness is caused by concussions, bruises. If a hematoma forms in the brain, the increase in CSF volume causes compression of the surrounding tissues. The nutrition of the brain is disturbed, the vessels are compressed.

Classification

Depending on the nature of the manifestations, several types of dizziness are distinguished in men and women:

1. True. Pathology is caused by abnormalities in the extrapyramidal system or vestibular apparatus.True dizziness occurs with vertebral artery syndrome, cerebellar pathology, inflammatory diseases of the inner ear, due to traumatic brain injury.

2. Pseudo-dizziness (organic syndrome). The patient feels unwell immediately after sleeping or when trying to get up quickly after sitting for a long time. There is no dizziness as such, but the person loses balance and falls. The reason for the false pathology may lie in a sharp violation of cerebral blood flow, insufficient trophism of tissues and organs.A similar symptom, when dizzy when standing up, is more often experienced by people with overweight or underweight, patients with neurological diagnoses. Rapid movement does not allow the body to adapt to the changed load. As a rule, pseudo-vertigo is harmless and does not require treatment. It is important to exclude the state of orthostatic hypotension, when a person’s blood pressure drops sharply when standing up.

3. Peripheral vertigo. The cause of the malaise is diseases of organs and systems that are not related to the brain.The head is dizzy due to the defeat of the vestibular apparatus. Trauma, toxic poisoning, viral and bacterial infections can lead to inflammation or destruction of the labyrinth. By itself, peripheral vertigo is not dangerous, but the underlying disease must be treated. Inflammation of the inner ear can progress to meningitis, spread to the sinuses, into the throat. Even without development, the disease interferes with daily life.

4. Central vertigo. Pathology is formed against the background of damage to the central nervous system. Possible causes: swelling, inflammation, compression of tissues in the frontal, occipital or parietal lobes, disorders of the cerebellum, extrapyramidal system. Central vertigo begins abruptly. Especially often, the symptom occurs during a rapid head turn, an unsuccessful tilt, or with other abnormal and abrupt movements. If dizziness is accompanied by weakness, hallucinations, you need to see a doctor immediately.Early diagnosis of pathologies is the key to successful treatment.

5. Secondary disorder. Dizziness develops as a consequence of the underlying disease. For example, impaired insulin sensitivity may be the cause of a secondary disorder.

6. Sensual form. The onset of a symptom provokes problems in the functioning of sensory organs. The patient may have impaired vision and hearing. Confusion is possible with a combination of light and noise stimuli, for example, when a person begins to feel dizzy when entering the dance floor.Sensual vertigo is always provoked by some external factor. Eliminating the trigger relieves the symptom.

Symptoms

The condition usually occurs suddenly, for no apparent reason. The person begins to feel dizzy, due to disorientation he is taken in one direction or the other. If the patient is sitting at this time, there may be a feeling of tilt in space or movement of surrounding objects. The manifestations are similar to those that occur after a long ride on the merry-go-round.The patient is uncertainly on his feet. In order not to fall, he needs support. The symptoms of vertigo usually subside quickly. Sometimes it is enough to sit or lie down and be at rest for a while.

Depending on the causes of dizziness, others may be added to the main symptom:

  • cold hands or feet;
  • feeling of lack of air;
  • feeling of fear, anxiety;
  • increased sweating in one area (for example, on the palms) or all over the body;
  • confusion of thoughts, feeling of lightness in the head;
  • nausea, vomiting;
  • numbness of the face, lips;
  • tinnitus;
  • acceleration of the heartbeat;
  • increase or decrease in pressure;
  • flashing “flies” before the eyes, darkening;
  • involuntary twitching of the eyeballs, etc.d.

Diagnostics

In total, about 80 diseases of various systems and organs can cause dizziness. For an accurate diagnosis, it is necessary to undergo a comprehensive examination by a general practitioner.

The patient is prescribed procedures in accordance with his condition:

1. General analysis of urine and blood.

2. Biochemical blood test.

3. Doppler ultrasonography of cerebral vessels.

4. Electroencephalography.

5. Research of hearing. Results of acoustic impedance, threshold audiometry may be required.

6. Posturography. During the study, the doctor assesses the mechanisms of interaction of the vestibular, visual and musculoskeletal systems that ensure balance. Rotation tests, caloric test are carried out.

7. Rheoencephalography. The study allows you to assess the trophism of brain tissue.

8. MRI. From the images, the doctor receives information about the state of the blood supply system, the presence and location of the tumor, the location of the inflammation focus, and other important data.

What to do in case of dizziness

When your head starts spinning, you need to calm down. Panic will complicate the situation. It is recommended to squat down or just on the floor, try to concentrate your gaze on one of the furnishings. Do not close your eyes! The dizziness will worsen if the brain stops receiving visual information.

If for some time the symptom intensifies, palms begin to sweat, nausea sets in, there is a feeling of tightness in the chest, it is necessary to call a doctor.Before the arrival of an ambulance, it is better to lie down horizontally, not to make sudden movements.

If you witness another person’s dizziness, help him to sit up. You can unbutton your outerwear and open the window for fresh air. The patient is placed on a sofa or any other horizontal surface, shoulders and neck are placed on a pillow. In an elevated position, the arteries will not bend and allow blood to flow to the brain. A cold towel applied to your forehead will help relieve the attack.

Treatment of dizziness

Complex treatment, selected individually for each patient. To prescribe adequate therapy, the doctor must have a clear answer to the question of why the patient is dizzy.

Drug therapy

If the cause of dizziness in a woman or a man is a circulatory disorder, vasodilator drugs are prescribed. An additional intake of antihistamines or other drugs that improve the rheological properties of blood is possible.

If the head is spinning due to a neurological disease, the doctor prescribes nootropics. Medicines improve nerve conduction.

Osteochondrosis causing dizziness requires complex treatment. Prescribe non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, muscle relaxants.

Dizziness in women, which occurs during menopause or on certain days of the menstrual cycle, disappears after hormone therapy. Treatment is carried out under the supervision of a gynecologist.

Compliance with work and rest regime

The patient is recommended to normalize his sleep, reduce the time spent in front of the computer if possible. It is important to observe the alternation of physical and mental stress.

Diet

It is necessary to exclude from the diet foods that increase or decrease blood pressure, spasm blood vessels, and have an exciting effect on the nervous system. The patient is advised to give up salty, spicy foods, strong tea and coffee.

Gymnastics

Simple exercise is helpful between attacks. Gymnastics will improve blood circulation, relieve muscle spasms, and stabilize the psychological state. You can rotate your head, body. If you do exercises with open and closed eyes, the vestibular apparatus will be additionally strengthened.

Simple complexes for balance, swimming, any other feasible loads are welcome.

Prevention of dizziness

To reduce the frequency of attacks and prevent them from occurring, it is recommended to adhere to the principles of a healthy lifestyle:

  • giving up bad habits: smoking and drinking alcohol;
  • exclusion from the diet of salty, spicy, smoked, fatty foods;
  • limited intake of sweets and caffeine;
  • daily morning exercises, physical activity;
  • regular walks in the fresh air;
  • fractional proper nutrition with a large amount of vegetables, fruits, rich in vitamins;
  • sleep on orthopedic mattresses and pillows if there are problems with the spine.
