How Vergon works
Vergon is a dopamine antagonist. It works by blocking the dopamine receptors in the region of brain that controls nausea and vomiting.

- It may also be used to treat dizziness associated with problems of the inner ear such as Meniere’s Syndrome.
- It may cause sleepiness. Don't drive or do anything requiring concentration until you know how it affects you.
- To lower the chance of feeling dizzy or passing out, rise slowly if you have been sitting or lying down.
- Avoid consuming alcohol when taking the Vergon as it may cause excessive drowsiness.
