Treatment of Vertigo
How it works
GOVERT PLUS MD Tablet containing (CINNARIZINE 20mg + DIMENHYDRINATE 40mg) used to treat vertigo. Cinnarizine is a calcium channel antagonist which works by preventing constriction of the blood vessels of the inner ear. This improves the microcirculation of the ear. Dimenhydrinate is an antiallergic. It blocks the action of a chemical messenger (histamine) that is responsible for light-headedness in vertigo. Thus this is a combination medicine which acts by relaxing vascular smooth muscles of the blood vessels of the ear and improves the blood circulation. It also blocks the action of a chemical messenger that is responsible for light headedness in vertigo..
