No other side effects. | M | 34 | 5 days | 8/21/2006 | 1 | vertigo | Did not help dizziness from vertigo. Very tired no energy, just still feel overall sick. | Why is this recommended for dizziness when it causes dizziness? Can someone please tell me if they know of something that does works? | F | 10 days | 9/1/2006 | 5 | Vertigo | soooooooo tired. Slept for a day AFTER I stopped taking the medicine BUT the room never spun again | Life is full of trade offs, I will take sleep over stumbling around like a drunk and having the room spin | M | 38 | 1 days | 3/3/2007 | 1 | After C-section for nausea | The medication was administered via IV after surgery because the nurse suggested a "new" medication for nausea.I think she gave me too much medication. I could not keep my eyes open and several times I would wake up from sleep feeling like I would stop breathing. I could hear people talking but I could not open my eyes. I couldn't even nurse my baby because I had no use of my arms. I told my mother several times I was afraid to truly go to sleep because I felt I would never wake up! It took 12 to 15 hours to wear off and I still felt groggy for another day. I would definitely NOT recommend to take this medication! I would have much rather been vomiting than feel like I was about to die. | F | 34 | 1 days | 8/30/2007 | 3 | Vertigo | Tiredness | I was just diagnosed with vertigo and I took Antivert for the first time this week. The vertigo seemed to go away, but at the cost of being very tired for about 24 hours. | F | 25 | 1 days | 11/6/2007 | 5 | Dizziness | None | Took this medicine off and on in 2001-02 while suffering bouts of dizziness caused by stress and a medical condition. I didn't have any noticeable side effects, but it took care of the dizziness. | M | 19 | 1 years | 11/20/2007 | 1 | dizziness | Ultra tired constantly. | Meclizine/antivert/bonine(all the same) are about useless. I wonder what they use or do in more enlightened places such as europe or japan? | M | 55 | 4 days | 11/23/2007 | 5 | MS (vertigo/confusion) | A bit tired, but tired is so much better than not being able to think or having vertigo. | Didn't work for me for the first couple of days, but now I'm a big fan. Am taking it twice daily. | F | 36 | 21 days | 1/12/2008 | 4 | dizziness/vertigo | a tired, medicine head feeling with 25 mg. dose..reduced the dose to 12.5 and that helped. seems to help a lot with the dizziness. | works so far..... | M | 50 | 5 days | 5/29/2008 | 1 | lightheadedness vertigo | extreme tiredness and more dizzy than before...seriously i have never felt this tired in my whole life, i cant take this pill anymore, all i seem to do is sleep | didnt help at all in the lightheadedness/dizzyness..i find it hilarious that one of the side effects for an anti-dizzy pill is dizzyness. im told if i take it longer i will eventually stop felling as tired and adjust to it. but to be honest i dont want to. its a horrible disconnected fake tired feeling that i dont like at all. its like extreme jet lag. | F | 25 | 2 days | 5/7/2009 | 4 | vertigo | some tiredness | It works when your head is spinning like a top! | F | 61 | 1 weeks | 8/11/2009 | 3 | Vertigo | This medicine completely knocked me out. I think I slept for 2 days and nights. | It helped the dizziness when and if I could get up | F | 65 | 3 days | 8/14/2009 |
