What Causes Feeling Lightheaded And Fatigue After Medication For An Episode Of Vertigo?

I went to the ER with extreme dizziness and they diagnosed it as vertigo, gave me meclizine, which took away the extreme dizziness. It has now been 4 days and I feel just lightheaded and tired--would this be a leftover from the vertigo attack or something else?

Hello,

It could be a vertigo attack.

Consult an ENT specialist and get evaluated.

As of now you can try drugs like betahistine for symptomatic relief.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
