A member asked:

Can taking an antacid for upset stomach cause dizziness or trigger dizziness or vertigo?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Antacid: Taking any medication can cause dizziness. Avoid foods that cause acid to increase in stomach, also avoid caffeine smoking and stress. Make sure you are drinking plenty of water, about half your body weight in ounces per day and exercise doing something that you like doing frequently.
