Compounded Medications for Vertigo
Personalized support through customized compounded medications.
At AllMedRx, we prepare compounded medications for vertigo based on your provider’s prescription and your individual needs.
Understanding Vertigo
Vertigo is a specific type of dizziness characterized by the false sensation that you or your surroundings are spinning or moving when there is no actual movement. Unlike general lightheadedness or imbalance, vertigo creates a distinct rotational sensation that can be mild and brief or severe and debilitating.
Vertigo typically results from problems within the inner ear (peripheral vertigo) or issues with the brain and central nervous system (central vertigo). Common causes include benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), Meniere’s disease, vestibular neuritis, labyrinthitis, migraines, or other vestibular disorders. The condition can significantly impact balance, coordination, daily activities, and quality of life.
Episodes of vertigo may last seconds to minutes, hours, or even days depending on the underlying cause. Associated symptoms often include nausea, vomiting, balance problems, and difficulty concentrating. Effective management requires identifying the underlying cause and implementing appropriate treatments.
Vertigo is typically evaluated by a licensed healthcare provider through detailed medical history, physical examination including balance and eye movement testing, hearing tests, and sometimes imaging studies or vestibular function tests.
If you are experiencing vertigo or balance problems, it is important to speak with your provider for proper evaluation and guidance.
Common Causes and Symptoms
Common Causes of Vertigo
Typical Symptoms
Everyone experiences vertigo differently. Personalized compounding may be considered when commercially available medications or formulations do not meet a patient's specific needs.
Medications for Vertigo: Treatment Options
Vertigo is often managed through a combination of medication, vestibular rehabilitation therapy, repositioning maneuvers (for BPPV), lifestyle modifications, and treatment of underlying causes. Your provider will determine which options are appropriate based on the cause of vertigo, symptom severity, medical history, and treatment goals.
Common Types of Vertigo Medications
Medications such as meclizine or dimenhydrinate may be prescribed by healthcare providers to reduce vertigo symptoms and associated nausea, particularly for acute episodes.
Options such as scopolamine may be used to control nausea and vertigo symptoms, depending on the patient’s presentation and provider recommendation.
Short-term use of medications such as diazepam or lorazepam may be prescribed for severe vertigo to reduce symptoms and anxiety associated with episodes.
Medications specifically targeting nausea and vomiting (such as promethazine or ondansetron) may be used to manage associated symptoms.
For Meniere’s disease, diuretics may be prescribed to reduce fluid retention in the inner ear and decrease episode frequency.
For vestibular migraines, preventive medications or acute migraine treatments may be prescribed as part of vertigo management.
Depending on symptom severity and underlying causes, a provider may prescribe multiple medications. Compounding may allow certain medications to be combined into one formulation if prescribed.
