Hi,
Stemetil (
prochlorperazine) is an antiemetic medication used to treat nausea and
vomiting. It is also sometimes used to treat
dizziness and vertigo. However, in some cases, it may not be effective for all types of dizziness.
Extreme dizziness and feeling sick can be a sign of a more serious condition and may require immediate medical attention. It is possible that your mother's symptoms could be related to her recent stroke or another underlying condition, and it is important to have her evaluated by a healthcare professional.
Some possible causes of dizziness in older adults include
inner ear problems, low blood pressure, medication side effects,
dehydration, and neurological conditions. It is important to discuss your mother's symptoms with her healthcare provider to determine the underlying cause and the most appropriate treatment plan.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Priyanka, General & Family Physician
