I had vertigo once from my MS, and it was so tough to deal with. I don't have any advice on how to fix it, but just wanted to tell you that I am so sorry you're going through it. It really is a horrible, horrible symptom.

Best,
Jane

The dosage I was given was 5 mg (one tablet) three times a day.  

I really hope this helps you as vertigo is just so debilitating.

Thanks Poppy7402.I tried Betahistine and made the symptoms worse.I tried it for 15 days and it was terrible for me.I felt my head like a balloon, and it was under the supervision of the neurologist.What about the other medicine you mentioned?What was the dosage of Prochlorperazine?

Two drugs I've tried are Prochlorperazine and Betahistine.  They didn't completely get rid of my vertigo but they made life a lot better.
