Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common peripheral vestibular system disease causing dizziness. It occurs more in the 5th decade of life and affects the posterior canal in 90% of the patients. The most effective treatment method is canalith repositioning (CRP) maneuver. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of betahistine and dimenhydrinate therapies in addition to CRP maneuver on BPPV patients.
