Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Balance function

    Balance function, measured by computerized dynamic posturography.

    Change from baseline, at 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 12 weeks postrandomisation

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Duration of RD symptoms

    Change from baseline at 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 12 weeks postrandomisation.

  • Quality of life assessment scale

    Change from baseline at 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 12 weeks postrandomisation.

  • Otolith function

    Change from baseline at 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 12 weeks follow-up will be necessary only when the previous examine showing abnormal.

  • Daily function

    Change from baseline, at 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 12 weeks postrandomisation

Study Arms (3)

Group A

EXPERIMENTAL

Group A will be provided with Exercise-based vestibular rehabilitation (VR) twice per day for a period of 4 weeks;

Behavioral: Exercise-based vestibular rehabilitation

Group B

EXPERIMENTAL

Group B will be prescribed with Betahistine 12mg, twice daily for 7 days;

Drug: Betahistine

Group C

EXPERIMENTAL

Group C will receive an combination of Exercise-based VR plus Betahistine.

Drug: BetahistineBehavioral: Exercise-based vestibular rehabilitation

Interventions

Betahistine is used in the treatment of and vertigo.

Group BGroup C

Exercise-based vestibular rehabilitation (VR) has proven to be an effective way for managing dizziness by relieving symptoms and improving balance and postural stability.
