Abstract：
PURPOSE:We undertook a preliminary assessment of the efficacy of administering intravenous dexamethasone (DEX) for relieving the nausea and dizziness accompanying vestibular neuritis (VN). METHODS:Between November 2013 and October 2014, 26 patients with VN were prospectively enrolled in this study. The patients were randomly assigned to treatment with a combination of 20 mg/d of intravenous metoclopramide, 100 mg of oral dimenhydrinate, and 5 mg/d of intravenous DEX or 20 mg/d of intravenous metoclopramide, 100 mg of oral dimenhydrinate, and intravenous normal saline as a placebo therapy. Patients' subjective assessments of the severity of their nausea and dizziness were recorded using a visual analog scale on the day of admission and 2 days, 3 days, 1 month, and 3 months thereafter. Bedside examinations consisted of spontaneous nystagmus (SPN) assessment, the head shaking nystagmus test, and the head impulse test, which were performed at every follow-up visit. FINDINGS:The severity of nausea and dizziness was significantly reduced over time (both P < 0.05). However, there was no significant effect of DEX injection on the severity of nausea or dizziness (P > 0.05). The presence of SPN was solely associated with nausea (hazard ratio = 3.34; 95% CI, 1.85-6.02). IMPLICATIONS:The administration of intravenous DEX did not relieve nausea or dizziness any better than a placebo treatment. However, further research is required to confirm whether there is a dose-dependent effect of DEX on the control of nausea or dizziness in VN.
