Dizziness can refer to a wide variety of sensations, including unsteadiness, wooziness, weakness, and fainting. It’s quite common and it might happen to anyone. Rarely does it indicate a major issue. The symptoms of dizziness can be treated easily.

When blood flow to the brain is compromised, dizziness can occur. This may happen if:

• Your blood pressure drops unexpectedly.
• Dehydration can occur from excessive loss of bodily fluids due to sickness
• You are constantly getting up too soon after resting.
• The common cold, allergies, low blood sugar, and the flu can all bring on a feeling of faintness.

Self Care:

• If you become dizzy when you rise up from a sitting or lying position 2 don’t make any extreme stance alterations.
• If you must get up from a lying position, do so carefully and sit for a few seconds before getting to your feet.
• If you must stand, secure yourself with a handhold.

Medication:

• Antihistamines like Diphenhydramine and Promethazine
• Benzodiazepines like Diazepam, Lorazepam and Clonazepam
• Anticholinergic drugs like Hyoscine hydrobromide
• Antiemetics drugs Prochlorperazine and Metoclopramide
• Acute vertigo medication should be used with caution since it may hinder vestibular adaptation.

• Try to avoid or cut back on using tobacco, coffee, and salt. These products enhance dizziness because they slow blood flow.
• If you’re going on a flight, try to get a seat in the middle of the plane, as far away from the wings as possible.
