It also depends on what is causing your vertigo. If migrainous, various migraine preventative drugs can help. If menieres, intratympanic steroid injections can help, as well as low sodium diet. Klonopin, or other benzos are also sometimes given as well for both conditions. I personally have migraine disease. I have a personal and family history of migraine with aura and migraine variant. When my dizzies started, it was in attacks, accompanied by facial pressure and pain. I take propranolol as a migraine preventative, and it's helped. I have since developed some symptoms that could be atypical menieres, so I may be developing that as well. While menieres is pretty uncommon, it is common for those with it to also have migraine.
I am not familiar with current treatments for vestibular neuritis, but my mom had it 25yrs ago, and they gave her antivert until she got better, but it pretty much knocked her out during that time.

Have you done the injection thing? Any good or bad news that you've heard about it?
