                                            Question : I have been on Eloquil for 7days, only 10 mg . I am experiencing rather extreme dizziness. Have been to the doctor, checked blood sugar, BP, and heart rate all good. Could this low dose cause my dizziness?
                            
                                    Brief Answer:
Yes, it could cause
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Yes, the low dose can cause. Most importantly, if it's started after starting Elavil then it's likely due to medicines induced only. So we should see the response of stopping it.
We have to consider the other possibility of ear induced vertigo if there is no relief after stopping it.
Hope this helps you.
Please get back if you have any doubts.
