Description
Stugeron tablets are an antihistamine medicine containing cinnarizine as the active ingredient. They are mainly used to treat ear-related problems that cause dizziness, vertigo, and balance issues. By relaxing the smooth muscles and blood vessels in the inner ear, Stugeron helps improve blood flow and reduce the symptoms of balance disorders, making daily activities easier to perform.
The medicine works by regulating the signals from the inner ear to the brain, which helps control motion sickness and prevents episodes of nausea or spinning sensations. Alongside treating vertigo, Stugeron may also be prescribed for certain types of motion sickness or migraine-related dizziness. Consistent use as directed by your doctor is essential for achieving the best results.
Stugeron tablets should be taken with food to minimize stomach irritation. Always follow your doctor’s instructions regarding dose and duration, and do not increase or skip doses on your own. Taking it exactly as prescribed ensures both safety and effectiveness.
Common side effects of Stugeron include drowsiness, sleepiness, and tiredness. Because of these effects, it is important to avoid driving, operating heavy machinery, or performing tasks that require alertness while on this medicine. If these side effects worsen or become troublesome, consult your doctor for advice on dose adjustment or alternative treatments.
Some other medicines containing cinnarizine include Vertigon 25 tablet, Cinzan 25 DT tablet, Vertiron 25 tablet, Diziron 25 tablet, and Cintigo 25 tablet. Before starting Stugeron, consult your doctor about your complete medical history and any other medications or supplements you are taking to prevent potential interactions and ensure safe use.
