Suggest Treatment For Dizziness And Vertigo

I am nearly 81 years old, white female in relatively good health, had a sudden onset of extreme dizziness, went to hospital (3 days), diagnosed with vertigo, CT scan negative. Home now much better, only taking Meclazine. What things can I do to get rid of the residual dizziness and cloudy head and eyes? YYYY@YYYY
