5 | dizziness | none | A life saver if I get a dizzy spell. I usually cut my tablet in half and if that is not enough i will take the whole pill. Works well | 72 | 30 years 20 1X AN | 10/27/2018 | 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 | 5 | vertigo | Very woozy And Tired Does help with my symptoms of vertigo. Instead of taking a whole pill, as of today cutting back to half two times a day. | 62 | 1 months 25 | 12/3/2015 | 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 | 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 | 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 | 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 | 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 | menieres disease | sleepiness | i took it as neede for several years when suffering attacks of vertigo | F | 30 | 2 years | 7/11/2003 | 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 | 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 | Vertigo | I have a few more pills to take and won't be sure if what I'm feeling is a side effect of the pills or a symptom related to the virus (?) which ostensibly caused my severe vertigo attack. However, since my vertigo cleared, my balance is precarious and I walk as though I were drunk. I see that meclizine can impair "motor skills", which would presumably include walking and I'm hoping that once I stop taking it, my balance when walking will return to normal. | My vertigo (the room spinning, nausea, etc.) seemed to clear up nicely within two days of my first dose of meclizine. I was told to continue with the 25 mg. dose until my symptoms cleared up completely, and I've not be sure if the balance issue is a symptom that has not cleared up yet or a side effect of the drug. I guess I'll find out tomorrow! | F | 62 | 6 days 25 3X day | 4/6/2013 | 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 | vertigo | some tiredness | It works when your head is spinning like a top! | F | 61 | 1 weeks | 8/11/2009 | 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 | anxiety | cough-recurring | great for anxiety, but may have caused a cough | M | 35 | 2 years | 4/29/2006 | 4 | Dizziness/Hives | MAKES YOU VERY TIRED. I have 3 kids and I can only take it at bed if my husband gets with the baby! THIS SUCKS! No longer dizzy but Hives came back even after taking this for a week. Hives came while still taking! | F | 20 | 14 days | 9/2/2005 | 4 | acute labryth.... | very tired | F | 38 | 1 weeks | 7/15/2004 | 4 | | 1/14/2003 | 3 | Vertigo- possible inner ear issue | Dry mouth, jitters, headaches, tired | It helps my vertigo, but I feel really tired and have had horrible headaches since day two of taking. I don't think popping ibuprofen is worth not feeling the vertigo I get sometimes. Usually just motion sickness related but I take it for car rides every day and I don't think I will continue | F | 30 | 14 days 25 mg 1X day | 4/30/2022 |
