Hi Dear ,
As per you have problem of vertigo which is increasing day by day even after taking medicine for the same . Well there can be many reasons for vertigo , bu the most common is anxiety and the other Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) are ear infection , hypoglycemia , anemia , meniere's disease , migraine and alteration in he blood circulation . Your doctor has prescribed anti histamine and glucocorticoid, prescribed for anti-inflammatory conditions, and used as an immunosuppressant . Continue taking thses medicines and consult ENT specialist again for proper diagnosis . Doctor may order test like rotatory chair test , head movement test , posturography and CT scan .
