Persistent dizziness despite taking medications requires further medical evaluation. You should consult an ENT specialist or neurologist to check for underlying causes such as inner ear disorders, vestibular migraine, or neurological conditions. Avoid driving or operating machinery until your symptoms improve, and keep a diary of episodes to help your doctor plan the best treatment.

I'm sorry to hear that you're still experiencing spinning sensations and weakness despite your current medications. Vertigon Forte and Vertistar-MD contain betahistine, which is commonly used to manage symptoms of Meniere’s disease and other causes of vertigo by improving blood flow in the inner ear and reducing fluid buildup. Stemetil (prochlorperazine) is often prescribed to help control nausea and dizziness.

Since these medications are not providing relief, it is important to:

  • Revisit your specialist doctor, preferably an otolaryngologist (ear, nose, and throat specialist) or a neurologist, to reassess your condition.
  • Your doctor may need to review your diagnosis, evaluate for other possible causes of your symptoms, or adjust your treatment plan.
  • Additional tests such as hearing assessments, balance tests, or imaging studies might be necessary to better understand the cause of your symptoms.
  • Avoid self-adjusting or stopping medications without medical advice.

Persistent vertigo and weakness can significantly impact quality of life, so timely specialist evaluation is essential to optimize your care.

If your symptoms worsen suddenly or you experience severe headache, vision changes, weakness on one side, or difficulty speaking, seek emergency medical attention immediately.

Please consult your specialist doctor promptly for a thorough evaluation and tailored treatment plan.To narrow down potential causes, we will need some more information.I understand you're experiencing spinning sensations and weakness even after taking Vertigon Forte 75 mg Tablet for years, and that Vertistar-MD 16 Tablet and Stemetil MD Tablet aren't helping either. Could you please share your age and gender?
