Description

Sindhu Vasireddy and seven co-authors compare preventive drugs for vestibular migraine, in a review published in twenty twenty-five. The condition brings repeated attacks of vertigo and harms quality of life. Many drugs are used to prevent attacks, but few have been tested head to head, so doctors lacked a clear ranking.

The team searched four large databases for trials and strong observational studies up to early twenty twenty-five. They merged direct and indirect evidence in a network analysis. The main outcomes were how often vertigo struck each month and scores for handicap from dizziness. The review weighs both benefit and safety across the drug options. It aims to give clinics a firmer base for choosing treatment.
