Stugeron Description
Overview
Stugeron is a well known option in Australian pharmacies for mild vertigo, dizziness and travel sickness. In Australia the tablets are usually 25 mg each. The medicine combines antihistamine and calcium‑channel blocking effects to calm signals in the inner ear. This can help people feel steadier during movement and reduce nausea.
What it helps with
Many customers use Stugeron for vertigo episodes or a spinning feeling. It also helps some travellers cope with motion sickness on buses, trains, ships or planes. People who experience lightheadedness after standing or during changes in position sometimes notice relief. As always, use is guided by a pharmacist or doctor, especially if symptoms are persistent.
How it works
The active ingredient cinnarizine has a dual action. It blocks certain brain receptors that respond to histamine, which can help with nausea. It also reduces excessive signals from the inner ear to the brain, helping the balance system to stabilise. The result is less dizziness and milder nausea for many adults.
Dosage and how to take
The usual adult dose is 25 mg taken two to three times per day. Do not exceed 75 mg in a day unless instructed by a clinician. Tablets should be swallowed with water and can be taken with or without food. If you are planning travel, your pharmacist can advise the best timing for your situation, including any pre‑travel dosing.
What to expect and duration
Some people notice improvements within a few hours, others take a day or two of regular dosing. If symptoms persist beyond a few days or worsen, seek advice. Avoid driving or operating heavy machinery if you feel drowsy or blurred vision after taking Stugeron.
Who should not take it
Stugeron is not for everyone. It is generally not recommended for children under 12 years old. It should be used with caution in older adults and in people with certain medical conditions. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should speak with a clinician before use. Never take Stugeron in place of medical treatment prescribed for vertigo or nausea without medical advice.
Side effects and safety
Common effects include drowsiness, tiredness and dry mouth. Some people may feel upset stomach or lightheadedness when starting therapy. Rarely, movement problems or skin reactions occur. If you notice severe symptoms, such as swelling, rash, breathing difficulties or severe movement changes, seek urgent medical help.
Interactions and precautions
Avoid alcohol while using Stugeron, as it can increase drowsiness. Tell your pharmacist about all medicines you take, including herbal products and non‑prescription drugs. Stugeron can interact with other sedatives or medicines affecting the brain. If you have liver or kidney issues, discuss your dose with a clinician before starting treatment.
Australian context and online buying
In Australia, Stugeron is commonly available from pharmacies, including online stores, with guidance from a pharmacist. Pack sizes in Australia typically include several dozen tablets, making it suitable for short courses or longer use when recommended. Always check the label for directions specific to your pack and country.
Customer experience and review
“I used Stugeron on a long flight and a road trip. It helped with the motion sickness and I could relax a bit more during the journey. It did make me feel sleepy the first day, so I avoided driving before I knew how I felt. After a day or two the drowsiness settled, and I appreciated the steadier head and fewer nausea spells.”
Storage and disposal
Store in a cool, dry place away from children. Keep in the original packaging. Do not use after the expiry date printed on the bottle. If any tablets are damaged or the packaging is compromised, talk to your pharmacist about safe disposal.
In summary
Stugeron offers a practical option for adults dealing with vertigo, dizziness or travel sickness in Australia. Start with the lowest effective dose and follow pharmacist guidance. If symptoms are not controlled or side effects appear, seek advice to determine the best course of action. Remember, this information is a general guide and does not replace medical advice.
