Hello,
Dizziness can be associated with nausea. It is most commonly related to the inner ear though there are other causes as well.
The most common inner ear causes are:
(1) BPPV- Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo
(2) Meniere's disease
(3) Vestibular neuritis- this is the most common reason
The use of medicines such as Diazepam, Dramamine, and Meclizine etcetera can help. They should be used for only a few days only. If it continues, then she should be seen.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Michelle Gibson James
