Scopolamine for dizziness
I am not sure where to put this but this seems like a place to start. For dizziness my doctor wants me to try Scopoline. Has anyone used this? I am always anxious about new medications as I tend to have bad reactions to most medications. Thank you.

There must be help to get if you ask a moderator- I found my doctor by asking around in the hospital but that was more luck than design just asking all the nurses in Bangkok biggest and very famous university hospital - I was in icu but conscious and the doctor came to see me the following day and in good Mayo stile he said I can now take over as your lead doctor he did and all other appointments now go via his nurses that cuts down waiting time. I hope you find luck as I did
I use to get dizzy spells or a swimmy sensation. AWFUL! Could barely work. Spent a fortune on allergy shots and I bought the allergist several Mercedes Benzes. Lo and Behold, I moved to Austin, TX, and the doctor said I have no allergies. The wonderful allergist labeled me as having VASOMOTOR RHINITIS. You're allergic to weather changes. Something about the Barometric Pressure effects the brain. Yes, weather changes can make you sick. My Aunt had the same thing and would get sick, dizzy and completely out of sorts. Everybody would call her crazy like my allergist did in Savannah. He would make no money on prescribing ASTELIN for VASOMOTOR RHINITIS, so he put me on allergy injections for years. That way he would get RICH! Allergy injections did not help! I can tell when a weather changes appear within two days. When I get sick, I can barely write a coherent sentence. Your brain is effected in a weird way and it's awful. Hope that helps. It's common.
