A member asked:
My 80 year old mom just went off meclizine how long will it take the bad side affects of confusion sleepiness difficulty breathing itching to go away?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
May take a few days: The time it takes the body to process half of the dose is ~5 hours, but the the duration of action of Meclizine is approx 24hrs. If she was having adverse side effects of meclizine, would expect to gradually improve over 1-3 days or so after stopping it, depending on how efficient her body is at processing it.
