Find the cause: before attempting treatment. There are many possible causes of vertigo and effective treatment requires identification of the cause.

A member asked:

If Dramamine helps, does that mean lightheadedness (no spin) is related to vertigo? Dramamine makes me feel better and 6 hours later I start to feel bad again. I take another one and an hour later I feel better again. Its a cycle for days now.
