A member asked:

What can cause vertigo in middle of night. started at 2am and finally subsided around 7am. i was diagnosed w gastritis about a month ago, take zantac (ranitidine) ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Inner ear: True vertigo is caused by an inner ear problem and usually starts quickly and ends pretty quickly the fact that this lasted several hours is a little bit more concerning and I would see your doctor.I do not think it has anything to do with your reflux
