Commonly
Prescribed Medication
There is a
large number of medications
presently being used to treat Morbus Meniere's . This perhaps
reflects
the fact that not one single treatment or medication will be effective
in all
patients. The following short list is for information
purposes only and
shows the medication that is prescribed to me.

|
| Generic
Name: TRIAMTERENE/HCTZ |
| Drug Class:
DIURETICS
Dyazide is a combination
of hydrochlorothiazide (diuretic and antihypertensive) and triamterine.
Triamterine is a potassium-sparing diuretic, which means that it
increases excretion of sodium and chloride in the urine, while
conserving potassium.

|
| Generic
Name: MECLIZINE HCL |
| Drug Class:
ANTIEMETICS
Meclizine is used to
treat the nausea and vomiting associated with motion sickness and
vertigo. It is believed to work by decreasing the sensitivity of the
body's central nervous system balance centers. It helps manage motion
sickness and affects the chemoreceptor trigger zone to control vomiting.

| Generic
Name: DIAZEPAM |
| Drug Class:
BENZODIAZEPINES
Anticonvulsant,
Antianxiety, Skeletal Muscle Relaxant
Diazepam is a benzodiazepine, a type of central nervous system (CNS)
depressant (medicine that slows down the nervous system). It is used to
treat several disorders including panic disorder, muscle spasms,
anxiety, and alcohol withdrawal. It is also used in combination with
other anti-seizure medications to treat seizure disorders.
