Vertigil Tablet 6's is used to treat Meniere's disease (inner ear disorder), which can cause vertigo (a spinning sensation or dizziness), ringing in the ears, nausea (feeling sick), vomiting, and loss of hearing. It contains Cinnarizine and Domperidone, which blocks the action of dopamine in the brain, that causes nausea and vomiting. It increases the movements and contractions of stomach muscles. It also improves blood circulation in the inner ear, thus reducing symptoms caused by vertigo, tinnitus (ringing in the ear), and Meniere's disease. It may cause common side effects such as drowsiness, nausea, dry mouth, indigestion, and weight gain. Before taking this medicine, you should tell your doctor if you are allergic to any of its components or if you are pregnant/breastfeeding, and about all the medications you are taking and pre-existing medical conditions.

About Vertigil Tablet 6's

Vertigil Tablet 6's is an oral prescription medicine used to relieve symptoms of vestibular disorders, such as vertigo and dizziness. It helps restore balance by calming the inner ear and also helps prevent and treat the nausea and vomiting that often accompany these conditions.

For the best results, take Vertigil Tablet 6's exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Many people are advised to take it 15 to 30 minutes before meals, particularly because domperidone works best before food. However, some patients may be advised to take it with food if cinnarizine causes stomach upset or nausea.

Always follow your doctor's instructions regarding when to take your medicine. Making simple lifestyle adjustments, such as limiting salt intake (if advised), avoiding sudden head movements, and getting up slowly from sitting or lying positions, may also help improve your symptoms.

While taking Vertigil Tablet 6's, you may experience mild side effects such as drowsiness or dry mouth. If you notice serious symptoms such as irregular heartbeats, fainting, or unusual muscle stiffness or involuntary movements, seek medical attention promptly.

How Vertigil Tablet 6's Works

Vertigil Tablet 6's contains two active medicines that work together to relieve vertigo and associated nausea. • Cinnarizine is a calcium channel blocker and H1-antihistamine. It helps reduce the excessive activity of the balance organs (labyrinth) in the inner ear and decreases the abnormal nerve signals that cause dizziness, vertigo, and motion sickness. It also has mild effects on blood vessels that may contribute to symptom relief. • Domperidone is a dopamine receptor blocker that mainly works outside the brain. It blocks dopamine signals that trigger nausea and vomiting and also helps move food through the stomach more efficiently, reducing feelings of sickness. Together, these medicines help control both vertigo and the nausea or vomiting that often accompanies it.
