5 | Vertigo caused by inner ear problem | Extreme sleepiness | Good stuff! Works extremely well. Was prescribed 25mg - too much. Functioned much better on 1/2 pill. Also, take it in the evening preferably before bed. | M | 49 | 1 weeks 12.5 1X day | 8/21/2011 | 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 | 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 | 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 | 4 | seasickness | Drowsiness, dry mouth and grogginess on waking. | Made me drag fairly badly for the first three days, but after that I seemed to develop a tolerance to the side effects. Was effective at preventing motion sickness as long as I took it a while before the motion started. Being draggy is much better than feeling gaggy, but this would not mix well with driving. | M | 31 | 30 days 25 mg 2X day | 1/23/2012 | 4 | anxiety | cough-recurring | great for anxiety, but may have caused a cough | M | 35 | 2 years | 4/29/2006 | 3 | lightheadedness, dizziness,vertigo? | repetitive and cyclic dreams, dizziness | Only think it helped one morning. Otherwise, couldn't tell the difference between the disequilibrium and the medicine. Not sure why doctor prescribed only 3 days usage (coupled with Ciprodex) | M | 51 | 3 days 25 mg 3X day | 5/8/2012 | 2 | Vertigo | I felt more dizzeness...vertigo got worse at times..felt very sleepy:: when drug wore off..vertigo would clear then return..got constipated when taking drug....felt tense...unable to sleep whne stopped taking drug.. | I'm not sure why doctor prescribed a drug that makes you dizzy when you are dizzy to begin with..::.last vertigo attack, in 1996 another doctor prescribed presidone for ten days, also made me sleepy but appeared to stop my vertigo..this doctor told me presidone was a steriod and he wouldn't recommend for vertigo... | M | 59 | 4 days | 1/29/2006 | 2 | Vertigo | Did not improve vertigo symptoms at all. No other side effects. | M | 34 | 5 days | 8/21/2006 | 2 | Blurred vision and vertigo | Helped with vertigo but put me in la la land. Slept all day and got extremely disoriented while driving. Took two days to wear off. I would advise first time Used to try a low dose first and increase after if no negative side effects. Do not drive until you know how it effects you. | All drugs can effect some people negatively. So take your first dose at home and not before going anywhere especially driving. | M | 75 | 2 days 25 | 3/15/2017 | 1 | Vertigo | I get vertigo attacks, which last for days. Doctors *think* it's inner ear related. The first time, vertigo spun out of control, I would have jumped off a bridge if it couldn't be controlled with something . Second time, it didn't work AT ALL. It made me extremely, irrationally angry . I yelled at my family for 3 days and there was no relief in my symptoms. My body is getting better without drug interference. | Anger, anger, anger!!!! This drug does nothing to help with vertigo, it simply interferes with your brain activity!! | M | 49 | 25mg 1X day | 8/13/2019 | 1 | dizziness | none | It did not stop the syptoms | M | 33 | 2 times | 6/28/2004 | 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 | 5 | migraine and vertigo | Sleepiness | Works well to deter nausea, I can usually get away with taking 1/4 to 1/2 of a 25mg pill to avoid the worst of the drowsiness but it'll definitely knock you out at higher doses. As an added bonus it seems to help with the confusion and anxiety that I sometimes get with migraines. | F | 32 | 3 years | 11/30/2009 | 5 | menieres disease | sleepiness | i took it as neede for several years when suffering attacks of vertigo | F | 30 | 2 years | 7/11/2003 | 5 | Vertigo, Dble visn, Could not walk | None. | Works great. No episodes since I started taking this. Am very grateful. Also take Xanax, Klonopin, Restoril, Neurontin, Diovan, Simvastatin, and Norvasc. Antivert has been a great drug for me and helped me alot. It does not interact negatively with my other medications. | F | 59 | 6 months 25 4X day | 5/21/2016 | 4 | NAUSEA WITH OTHER MEDICATION | tiredness sometimes, | Amazing drug, as it wont react with the other medications I am taking which caused me severe nausea. I now take it as I need. I did experience extreme dizziness one time when I got off the bus, thought I was gonna faint. | F | 20 | 4 weeks 1X day | 11/14/2016 | 4 | Nausea | Hard to wake up and stay awake. Grogginess feeling usually lasts all day. Also feels like I am in a dream during the day. Does help with nausea. | Taking 1 full tab before bed time then 1/2 tab after waking, then 2 more 1/2 tabs q 4-6 hours. Repeat. Total 50.5 mg daily. Supposedly side effects wear off after taking it for awhile. | F | 26 | 1 weeks 25 2X day | 4/10/2017 | 4 | acute labryth.... | very tired | F | 38 | 1 weeks | 7/15/2004 |
