Question: I am 32 and have been told that I suffer from Vertigo. (by E.R) I do not trust my doctor to treat this problem and have not seen him about it. Don’t get me wrong, I just get the feeling that he is just your basic doc. Help a cold, cure an infections. What I need to know, is there an O.T.C. that I can use to help releave this problem until I find a treatment? I am looking for any help you can give me. Not it matters I also have C.P.

Answer: Antihistamines(benadryl, chlortrimeton and the like) are the first line of treatment. We usually use a drug called Antivert, but similar in effect.
