In cases oforthostatic hypotension, dizziness may occur when susceptible individuals change position too quickly (from lying to sitting or from sitting to standing). These problems can also occur when bending over. Blood rushes to the legs and stomach, and the vessels are unable to contract quickly enough. Blood pressure suddenly drops and the following symptoms may appear:

To complement this allopathic treatment, we offer you an alternative with these homeopathic remedies recommended in case of vertigo:
Tanganil acts on vertigo by stabilizing the activity of the vestibular system of the inner ear, rapidly reducing the sensation of vertigo in many patients.
This drug essentially containsacetylleucine, a molecule which plays a direct role in regulating balance and the sensation of vertigo. Acetyl-leucine acts by normalizing nerve impulses in the structures responsible for maintaining posture and spatial orientation. This action promotes faster recovery from certain balance disorders, such as paroxysmal vertigo or vertigo of central or peripheral origin.
Tanganil is generally proposed to treat peripheral or central vertigo, particularly vertigo associated with pathologies such as vestibular neuritis, labyrinthitis or Meniere's syndrome. It is prescribed in tablet or injectable solution form, depending on the intensity of symptoms and the clinical context.
Tanganil is recognized for its rapid relief of the sensations of loss of balance and discomfort associated with vertigo. The treatment is well tolerated, and rarely triggers notable side-effects when used in accordance with medical indications. However, medical advice is essential to adapt the treatment to each individual situation.
Box of 30 tablets, available without prescription. The price of this medicine is fixed.
Tanganil GE is not a product like any other. Read the package insert carefully before ordering. Keep Tanganil GE out of the reach of children. If symptoms persist, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice. Beware of incompatibilities with your current products.
Around 15% of people seem to have experienced vertigo at least once in their lives. Vertigo is often regarded as an emergency by sufferers, whereas in most cases it's a benign symptom. Vertigo corresponds to an anomaly in the regulation of the vestibular system, the part of theinner ear involved in balance and posture. There are many causes of vertigo, most of them benign.
Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is one of the most frequent causes of vertigo. It is a good example of paroxysmalinner ear dysfunction.
All positional vertigo needs to be treated, to prevent the onset of anxiety or reactive depression linked to the patient's poor quality of life. A full otoneurological work-up (see otoneurological exploration) should be carried out at a distance from the attack, to try and find the cause of the positional vertigo and prevent a recurrence. Under no circumstances should doubt or avoidance behaviors such as lying down slowly, not moving the head, etc. be allowed to set in. The quality of life of patients and the prevention of falls in the elderly are at stake.
