Introduction

The medication works by reducing the amount of fluid in the inner ear, thereby alleviating these symptoms. Common side effects include headache, nausea, and indigestion. It is important to take this medication as prescribed by your doctor, and to inform them of any other medical conditions or medications you are taking. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using this medication.

How it works
Vertus 16mg Tablet is a histamine analog that improves blood flow in the inner ear, reducing the pressure of excess fluid. This helps alleviate symptoms like nausea, dizziness, and spinning sensations by dampening the nerve signals sent from the inner ear to the brain.
