Vertigo Treatment

"Beyond BETAHISTINE"

Vestibular medications such as betahistine and prochlorperazine etc. can be crucial in calming the vegetative symptoms caused by vestibular disorders. However, these medications do not address the underlying issues. Moreover, when taken long-term, they can interfere with natural recovery and cause harmful side effects, such as Parkinsonism. In contrast, Vestibular Rehabilitation Therapy (VRT) has proven to be very effective and economical compared to conventional routine therapy. A course of VRT is much cheaper than the cost of a single brain MRI, which often cannot detect common causes such as Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) and vestibular hypofunction.

An Excellent Course

Dr Suraj Parikh, ST6 Rehabilitation Medicine

This is an excellent course which I would argue is essential learning for any doctors seeing patients with acute neurological illness. Acute vertigo is often a poorly understood topic amongst clinicians and this course provides a clinically relevant, concise and well explained overview with excellent use of images and video. Administered virtually and in bitesize sections, it easily fits into a busy clinicians' working schedule. Thank You! Best Wishes

Pitched at the right level

Dr Vina Patel (GP, West Midlands, UK)

The Vertigo Course has helped me understand how to assess a patient who presents to Primary care and how to methodically rule out urgent referral and those that can be managed in primary care. The Course is easy to follow and pitched at the right level for GPs.
