I have used this medication for Vertigo. It has been a week taking this medication, however, the spinning continues and the medication only causes me to feel very drowsy. This medication is not used to cure the Vertigo only to minimize the spinning or whirling.

I've been on this for over a year for the dizziness I get and I found that the 25mg is a bit too much and makes it worse. So through trial and error I found that breaking it in half and taking it a bit more often works fine for me.

antivert has been a great help to me. it is the only drug that will my spinning. but the drug companys do not want to sell the brand name drug(antivert). and if you can obtain it, the price will be $100.00.without this drug I would be unable to get out of bed.

I started having dizziness two days before I went to see my doctor and was prescribed this med. After taking this drug for about a week it still did not help. This drug did not work for me at all.

This medication helped me alot. I was very dizzy and sick at my stomach. I could not get out of bed. It helped me to focus more, which I could not do before.

My husband was taking this medication because he had a viral infection and got Vertigo. He had taken the medication and he couldn't do anything but sleep. He was constantly drowsy and his stomach bothered him.

This was prescribed for me because I was getting dizzy, and sometimes falling or walking into walls. I took this for about 2 weeks and quit it. I felt like I had narcolepsy, and would close my eyes and fall asleep anytime. What made it really bad, and the main reason I quit taking it was I would struggle to stay awake while driving.. It did not help with the dizziness at all, in fact it made the dizziness worse. I was missing steps and falling down,
