I've been prescribed Meclizine 12.5mg (o-T-c) Tablets to help with my vertigo and motion sickness. I've heard it can cause some side effects, but I'm hoping to hear from others who have used it. How long did it take for the medication to start working for you? Did you experience any side effects, and if so, how did you cope with them? I'm also curious about the long-term effects and if anyone has switched to a different medication after using Meclizine. Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

I've been prescribed Antivert (Meclizine) 25mg tablets for vertigo and motion sickness. I've been taking it for the past week and wanted to share my experience. How have other people found this medication? I've noticed some drowsiness, but it's definitely helped with the dizziness. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced any other side effects or if there are any tips for managing the drowsiness. Also, what should you do if a allergic reaction occurs?
