Dizziness tablets

Vertigo in medicine is called vertigo. It can arise for various reasons. Excessive physical exertion, fasting for a long time, changes in blood pressure, stuffiness in the room, malfunctioning of the vestibular apparatus. In women, dizziness often occurs during menstruation. In older women, it can be associated with menopause.

If the vertigo does not occur often and there are specific reasons for this, it does not threaten health and does not require treatment. It is enough to take a good tablet of dizziness and sit quietly for a while or lie down. Dizziness tablets normalize blood pressure and restore the heart rate.

Tablets can consist of natural or synthetic components. Faster are those that consist of active chemical components. They dissolve faster, are absorbed in the digestive tract and reach the location of the pathological process.

Frequent dizziness attacks can not be permanently treated with pills. In this case, you should immediately consult a doctor. This may be a signal that you are threatened by a more dangerous disease, for example, a heart attack.

Tablets from dizziness and noise in the ears

Dizziness and noise in the ears are most often caused by violations of the vestibular apparatus and the labyrinth of the inner ear.

Use of tablets against dizziness during pregnancy

The use of tablets against dizziness during pregnancy should only take place under the supervision of a physician. In a pregnant woman, dizziness, headaches and nausea can be caused not only by diseases of the labyrinth of the inner ear or by disorders of the vestibular apparatus, but also by changes in the body.

Dizziness can be caused by changes in blood pressure and changes in the whole organism, which is what happens in most cases. Therefore, the tablets should be aimed at normalizing the state of the circulatory system.

"Betaserc" is taken only on the advice of a doctor and only from the second trimester of pregnancy. The cause of vertigo may be anemia. Therefore, you should immediately start taking iron preparations. For example, "Tardiferon" or "Gino-tardifferon." With caution, you can take Analgin, Paracetamol. But only in those cases, if the benefits of taking are higher than the harm done to the fetus and only after consulting a doctor.

Interaction with other drugs has not been studied in detail. It is better not to take drugs for dizziness of the same composition and method of exposure.
