Brief Answer:
labyrinthine sedatives are needed

Detailed Answer:
Hi, thanks for your query.
Analyzing your history, it looks like vertigo for evaluation.

If I were your treating doctor, I would have prescribed labyrinthine sedatives like cinnarizine 25 to 50 mg. Along with this betahistine tablet 16 to 24 mg twice daily for 2 weeks.

Vestibular rehabilitation exercises will surely be helpful. All these are prescription medicines, so I would advise you to consult with the doctor and get evaluated.

Hope my answers have helped you. Thanks.
