Default Anything stronger than Meclizine?

Anyone know of a vertigo medication that's stronger than Meclizine?

I got hit with the Vertigo From Hell tonight.

I was really tired yesterday. Ended up going to bed and sleeping for 8hrs. Woke up and felt exactly like I did when I went to bed. Tired as heck. Been tired all day, and then around 8 or 9 tonight the vertigo washed over me.

I actually think the vertigo is being triggered by allergies. Dry month, warm for October...lots of pollens still in the air, and we're still doing remodeling...got brand new carpeting for the basement this week and all the dust from taking out the old carpet and putting in the new carpet is doing a number on my sinuses and my inner ear. Left ear is itching like crazy. My nieces were here tonight too, and one is really autistic and kept running around (driving me nuts) and making way too much noise.

I get vertigo very easy when the MS is acting up and I think the MS and my allergies are competing with each other this week for making me feel bad. Throw in the autistic kid driving me nuts with noise...too much activity for me today.

Crackers and carbonated pop felt like it helped more than the two and a half Meclizines I took earlier. If this vertigo lasts more than just tonight (better go away by morning!) I'm calling the neuro for something better. Why does this always happen on a weekend?!

I'm going to bed before the spinning gets really bad again and hope that this goes away soon. I feel icky. I think I hate vertigo more than most of my other MS symptoms. At least the other symptoms dont usually make me want to hurl. I just want an anti-dizzy medication that actually works other than just making me sleep.
