Suggest Treatment For Dizziness At Night Despite Taking Vertin

Hello,
Vertin medicine is used for Symptomatic management of dizziness. You are suffering from positional vertigo. It can be benign positional vertigo also. So, that should be ruled out. For that, epley maneuver useful.
Sometimes, inner ear infection like vestibulitis or Labyrinthitis also can lead vertigo for which short term course of prednisolone used. Consult otorhinolaryngologist for examination.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
