Meclizine Tablets Medication Description
Meclizine is an antihistamine widely prescribed for managing vertigo and motion sickness. Vertigo often results from disturbances in the inner ear or vestibular system, leading to spinning sensations, imbalance, and nausea. Meclizine works by blocking histamine receptors and reducing activity in the brain’s vomiting center and vestibular pathways, which helps stabilize balance signals and relieve symptoms. Its sedative properties also contribute to symptom control, making it a useful option for patients experiencing severe dizziness. Meclizine is typically taken as needed, but dosing should follow medical advice to avoid excessive sedation or side effects. It is often part of a broader treatment plan that may include vestibular rehabilitation exercises or other medications. While generally well tolerated, meclizine should be used with caution in older adults and those with certain health conditions. Monitoring for side effects and avoiding activities that require alertness during treatment are important safety considerations. -
Meclizine Tablets Side Effects
Common side effects of meclizine include drowsiness, dry mouth, blurred vision, and mild fatigue. Some patients may experience constipation or difficulty urinating. Serious but rare side effects include severe allergic reactions, confusion, or worsening of glaucoma symptoms. Patients should seek medical attention if they notice sudden vision changes, trouble breathing, or severe dizziness. It is important to avoid alcohol and other sedatives while taking meclizine and inform your doctor about all medications you use to prevent harmful interactions. -
