Vertigo Treatment Market
Vertigo Overview
Vertigo is a symptom of vestibular dysfunction and has been described as a sensation of motion, most commonly rotational motion. Vertigo affects all ages. In younger patients, middle ear pathology is most often the cause. In the elderly, specific assessment is needed due to the risk of falls and their complications. Vertigo is most often caused by a dysfunction in the vestibular system from a peripheral or central lesion.
Asymmetry in the vestibular system accounts for the symptoms of vertigo. Asymmetry may result from damage or dysfunction in the peripheral system, such as the vestibular labyrinth or vestibular nerve, or a central disturbance in the brainstem or cerebellum. Though there may be a permanent vestibular disturbance, the symptom of vertigo is never permanent as the central nervous system adapts over days to weeks.
Vertigo Diagnosis
The acronym STANDING describes a four-step algorithm based on nystagmus observation and well-known diagnostic maneuvers. It includes the discrimination between SponTAneous and positional nystagmus, evaluation of the Nystagmus Direction, the head Impulse test, and the evaluation of equilibrium (staNdinG). Laboratory testing is often not useful in identifying the etiology of vertigo. Diagnostic testing with brain imaging is indicated if a central lesion is suspected. Clinicians may find it difficult to distinguish between a central lesion, such as infarction, and a peripheral lesion, such as vestibular neuritis, where the symptoms of vertigo can last for days. In this case, neuroimaging is recommended in patients with risk factors for stroke, associated focal neurologic deficits, a new headache, and when the physical exam is not entirely consistent with a peripheral lesion. The modality of choice is MRI and MRA, as CT scans are less sensitive than MRI for diagnosing and evaluating central lesions. However, if MRI is unavailable or contraindicated, a CT scan with thin cuts may be used, particularly through the brain stem and cerebellum.
The differential diagnosis of vertigo is extensive as it can arise from a central or peripheral lesion in the vestibular system. Therefore, it is important to differentiate vertigo from symptoms of disequilibrium and pre-syncope, such as imbalance and lightheadedness.
Vertigo Diagnosis and Treatment Landscape
Treatment of vertigo depends on the etiology, and treating the underlying etiology will often improve the symptoms of vertigo. Medications may be useful to suppress vestibular symptoms in acute episodes that may last a few hours to days. The most common medications used for symptomatic relief include antihistamines, benzodiazepines, and antiemetics. The most common antihistamine used is meclizine, which is safe during pregnancy.
Vertigo Epidemiology

The epidemiology section on the Vertigo market report offers information on the patient populations, including historical and projected trends for each of the seven major markets. Examining key opinion leader views from physicians or clinical experts can assist in identifying the reasons behind historical and projected trends. The diagnosed patient pool, their trends, and the underlying assumptions are all included in this section of the report.
Key Findings
- As per a study by Stanton et al. (2023), vertigo affects both men and women but is about two to three times more common in women than men. Prevalence increases with age and varies depending on the underlying diagnosis. Based on a survey of the general population, the 1-year prevalence of vertigo is about 5% and an annual incidence of 1.4%. Dizziness, including vertigo, affects about 15% to over 20% of adults yearly.
- Based on data by Neuhauser (2016), titled “The epidemiology of dizziness and vertigo,” the Vestibular Vertigo incidence rate is 1.4% in Germany, whereas the Vestibular Vertigo prevalence rate is 4.9%. Also, the lifetime prevalence of Vestibular Vertigo is 7.4%. Dizziness (including vertigo) affects about 15% to over 20% of adults yearly in large population-based studies.
Vertigo Market Outlook
The market outlook for vertigo indicates potential growth and increased attention in the coming years. The market is expected to expand with the rising prevalence of vertigo, advancements in understanding the disorder, and the development of targeted therapies. Pharmaceutical companies actively engage in research and clinical trials to introduce novel treatments to manage Vertigo symptoms effectively. LABIRIN (bethistine dihydrochloride) is indicated for treating Ménière’s Syndrome, characterized by the triad of symptoms: vertigo (with nausea and vomiting), ringing in the ears, and hearing loss or difficulty. The market outlook for vertigo suggests a promising landscape with opportunities for innovation, improved treatment options, and better outcomes for individuals affected by dizziness and vertigo.
According to DelveInsight, the Vertigo market in the 7MM is expected to significantly change during the study period 2019–2032.

LABIRIN (bethistine dihydrochloride): Apsen Farmacêutica SA
LABIRIN (bethistine dihydrochloride) is indicated for treating Ménière’s Syndrome, characterized by the triad of symptoms including vertigo (with nausea and vomiting). Betahistine accelerates vestibule recovery after animal neurectomy, promoting and facilitating vestibular compensation. This effect, characterized by a regulation in the turnover and release of histamine, is mediated by H3 receptor antagonism. In humans, recovery time after a vestibular neurectomy was reduced when treated with betahistine.

Emerging Vertigo Drugs
The currently available treatments for vertigo aim to mitigate the existing treatment gap in the vertigo landscape. The Vertigo market dynamics are expected to change, primarily due to increased healthcare spending worldwide. Vertigo Market players such as AdvaCare Pharma, Auris Medical AG, Sound Pharmaceuticals Incorporated, and others are actively involved in developing Vertigo treatments.
SPI-1005: Sound Pharmaceuticals Incorporated
SPI-1005 is an investigational new drug that contains ebselen, a small molecule that is a new chemical entity or NCE under FDA classification. Ebselen is a selenorganic compound that mimics and induces glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity and represents a novel class of anti-inflammatory. GPx activity is critical to several cell types and tissues in the inner ear, retina, brain, lung, and kidney and is often reduced during exposures to environmental insults. SPI-1005 is given orally and is being tested in several neurotologic indications, including noise-induced hearing loss and tinnitus, and two types of ototoxicity (hearing loss, tinnitus, dizziness, or vertigo) due to aminoglycoside antibiotics (such as tobramycin), and due to platinum-based chemotherapy. In earlier clinical trials, SPI-1005 demonstrated strong proof-of-concept data supporting the potential treatment in preventing and treating noise-induced hearing loss and Meniere’s disease.

Vertigo Market Size by Countries
The total Vertigo market size is analyzed for individual countries (the United States Market, EU4 [Germany, France, Italy, and Spain] and the UK market, and Japan). The United States accounted for a larger portion of the 7MM market for vertigo in 2022 due to the increasing cases and the cost of treatments. This dominance is predicted to continue with the potential early entry of new products.
Vertigo Market Size by Therapies
The clinical pattern of vertigo is significant for diagnosing vestibular system disease, and duration is the most important clinical feature. Vertigo can arise from the labyrinth (peripheral nervous) or vestibular (central nervous) system. Common peripheral causes of vertigo include vestibular neuritis (sudden, unilateral vestibular loss), Ménière’s disease (episodic vertigo), benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), and bilateral vestibular loss. Common central causes of vertigo include vestibular migraine, cerebrovascular disease, and acoustic neuroma. As research and development efforts continue, it is expected that the market size for Vertigo therapies will expand further, driven by advancements in assessing the risk factors, treatment options, increased awareness, and growing demand for innovative approaches to address the needs of individuals experiencing vertigo.

- “The patient who has vertigo may have a nonspecific complaint that must be further differentiated into either an altered somatic sensation (giddiness, wooziness, disequilibrium), orthostatic lightheadedness (sensation of fainting), or the sensation of the environment (or patient) spinning (true vertigo).”
- “About 80% of cases of vertigo are due to a peripheral lesion (pathology of the vestibular structures or cranial nerve VIII). Although peripheral vertigo is benign and not life-threatening, it may cause significant disability.”
