I am 38/ (m). Had a vertigo episode in the year 2010. Ent doc. Cleared the ear wax and thereafter absolutely no issues for the last 10 years. 3 months back I had another vertigo episode, audiometry test ok, eng and vemp have slight right ear/side problem (bppv diagnosed). Exercises and betahistine have given but this time problem persists intermittently and slight tinnitus sometimes for about 5-10 secs only. Now the doctor gave me stablanz pv, caroverine, alzolam, pan d all for 1 month and I am afraid to take the piracetam component as my father used to take it for his alzheimer's disease. Do I really need this piracetam and zinko (cognitive enhancer!) right now?
