** Thanks for contacting HCM with your health concern.
1. since you are on blood pressure medicine, it may be excess dose or postural hypotension, so ideally contact with a Cardiologist who will either stop the drug for a day, then adjust the dose or use a different drug
2. If not promptly controlled ask for Hb%, X-ray cervical spine, ENT & ophthalmic check up.
2. till then: . avoid movement of the head,if giddiness is severe [bed rest] . capsule becasules one twice daily . injection neurobion 2cc IM [alternate day] for 5 days . If there are cochlear symptoms [tinnitus/deafness] add tablet betahistine 8 mg along with tablet cinnarizine
