Scopolamine for dizziness

Hello @ryman, I am not a medical professional, but believe you put this conversation in the right place. From what I was able to research, https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/scopolamine-transdermal-route/description/drg-20072848, scopolamine can be used to treat nausea and vomiting from motion sickness. Being anxious about new medications is completely understandable. If you don't mind sharing, is your dizziness part of another diagnosis?

Thanks for your reply. I have had dizziness for a long time. First they thought it was a crushed disc in my neck. Then fluid on the brain. I went to a neurosurgeon who did test and said it wasn’t that but I had Lyme disease and had had it for at least a year. Then I was tested and treated for BPPV. Sent for a sleep study. My heart rate fell to 20 so I now have a pacemaker. It had to be redone because it irritated the vagus nerve. So I have problems from that. Meantime, I am still dizzy. Hence the patch. What bothers me most is I can no longer drive.
