Vitamin D reduces vertigo recurrence
Vitamin D supplementation in preventing the recurrence of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo.
Highly relevant study findings.
We conducted a study to see how vitamin D affects the recurrence of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), a condition that can cause sudden bouts of dizziness. Our research was carefully designed as a randomized controlled trial, involving two groups: one received vitamin D supplements, while the other was given a placebo. We specifically focused on patients with low vitamin D levels, as previous evidence suggested they might benefit the most from supplementation.

Over the course of a year, the group receiving vitamin D supplements, at a dosage of 7000 IU weekly, showed significantly better results compared to the placebo group. At the six-month and one-year mark, the participants who took vitamin D not only had raised their vitamin D levels but also experienced fewer episodes of vertigo. The statistics revealed a marked decrease in recurrence rates for those taking vitamin D supplements, highlighting its potential role in preventing this frustrating condition.

In conclusion, our findings suggest that vitamin D supplementation could be an effective strategy for those prone to repetitive BPPV episodes, particularly if their initial vitamin D levels were on the low side.

Vitamin D may reduce vertigo
Evaluating the Vitamin D Deficiency-BPPV Link: Correlation or Causation?
Direct link to vitamin D treatment
We set out to understand how vitamin D affects vertigo, specifically looking at benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). This common condition causes episodes of dizziness when changing head positions. Our study involved 100 patients diagnosed with BPPV, where we measured their vitamin D levels and categorized them as deficient, insufficient, or sufficient. Those with low vitamin D received 2000 IU daily for six months.

Over one year, we monitored these participants monthly for the incidence, severity, and recurrence of vertigo episodes. Our findings were significant. We observed that 71% of patients with vitamin D deficiency experienced BPPV, compared to just 20% in those with sufficient levels. Moreover, the average severity of symptoms was much higher in those deficient in vitamin D.

Notably, the patients who received vitamin D supplementation saw improvements in both the frequency and severity of their BPPV episodes over time. These results reveal a promising relationship between vitamin D levels and vertigo severity, suggesting that increasing vitamin D could play a vital role in managing BPPV. However, we believe further studies are necessary to explore the underlying mechanisms and the broader implications of our findings on vestibular health.

Vitamin D reduces BPPV recurrence
Randomized Controlled Trial Assessing Vitamin D's Role in Reducing BPPV Recurrence in Older Adults.
Focused evaluation on vertigo
We conducted a thorough study to determine if vitamin D treatment could lower the recurrence rates of Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) in older adults. Utilizing a double-blinded, randomized control design, we followed participants over 12 months. Those classified as vitamin D deficient were divided into two groups: one group received vitamin D3 supplementation, while the other was given a placebo. Participants who had adequate vitamin D levels were observed without treatment, allowing a clear comparison.

Our findings were promising, revealing an impressive 87% reduction in the recurrence of BPPV for those in the vitamin D group compared to the placebo. Additionally, they experienced significantly longer intervals before their first recurrence of vertigo. Interestingly, no notable differences were observed between the vitamin D group and those who were already vitamin D replete in terms of recurrence rates or related dizziness issues.

This study opens the door for further investigation into the potential of making vitamin D a standard treatment for BPPV. Given that fewer episodes of vertigo may reduce the risk of falls in older adults, this research holds valuable implications for improving seniors' overall postural stability and quality of life.

Vitamin D's role in BPPV recovery
A Rare Presentation of Multicanal Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo in a Premenopausal Woman With Osteopenia: A Case Report.
Moderate relevance due to study design
We explored a rare case of multicanal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) in a 35-year-old premenopausal woman experiencing osteopenia, a condition characterized by low bone mineral density. Initially diagnosed with unilateral posterior canal BPPV from 2012 to 2014, her symptoms expanded to include involvement of the horizontal and anterior canals by 2015.

We observed that despite undergoing canalith repositioning treatments, the woman's symptoms persisted until she self-administered a daily dose of 5000 IU vitamin D. Interestingly, it was in 2016, after introducing this vitamin D treatment, that she experienced complete resolution of her symptoms.

While we cannot definitively establish a causal relationship between the vitamin D supplementation and the resolution of the vertigo—particularly due to the lack of control groups in this case—it does highlight the potential importance of vitamin D in managing such conditions.

BPPV linked to Vitamin D
SUCCESSFUL REPOSITIONING PROCEDURE FOR BENIGN PAROXYSMAL POSITIONAL VERTIGO AFTER STAPEDOTOMY.
Moderate relevance of findings
We investigated the impact of Vitamin D deficiency on a patient who developed benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) after a successful left-sided stapedotomy. The patient, a 56-year-old woman, had undergone the surgery to address her hearing issues related to otosclerosis. While she initially presented without dizziness, she experienced it a week later, especially when turning to her left side.

Upon testing, she displayed classic signs of BPPV. Notably, we discovered that her serum Vitamin D levels were low. To treat her condition, we employed the Epley's maneuver, a common repositioning technique for BPPV, and within a week, her symptoms improved significantly. This case underscores the often overlooked connection between Vitamin D levels and post-surgical vertigo.

Although our study suggests a link between Vitamin D deficiency and dizziness, it stops short of definitely establishing that Vitamin D treatment directly resolves BPPV. Monitoring Vitamin D and calcium levels could be vital for preventing recurrent dizziness after stapes surgery.
