Medical Therapy
If you tend to get light-headed when you stand up, avoid sudden changes in posture.
If you are thirsty or light-headed, drink fluids. If you are unable to keep fluids down from nausea or vomiting, you may need intravenous fluids. These are delivered to you at the hospital.
Most times, benign positional vertigo and labyrinthitis go away on their own within a few weeks. During attacks of vertigo from any cause, try to rest and lie still. Avoid sudden changes in your position as well as bright lights. Be cautious about driving or using machinery.
Some vertigo can be reduced by working with a physical therapist. Medications from your doctor may help you feel better.
Such medications include antihistamines, sedatives, or pills for nausea. For Meniere's disease, surgery may be necessary.
