Steroid ear injections for vertigo in one-ear Ménière’s
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This Phase 3 study compares injections of steroid medicine into the ear versus a dummy (placebo) injection to see if it reduces vertigo attacks in people with Ménière’s disease. It may help by improving balance symptoms and reducing how often attacks happen.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests if gentle neck therapy (called cervical mobilization) can help reduce dizziness, improve balance, and help your body feel its position better. If you have Meniere’s disease and ongoing dizziness or imbalance, this treatment might add to your care routine.
This trial uses an advanced MRI (7 Tesla) to look at a specific inner-ear swelling pattern in people with recent, one-sided Meniere’s disease symptoms. It may help confirm the diagnosis and improve how clinicians evaluate your inner-ear condition.
This study tests a new device that may help restore balance for people with long-term dizziness from inner ear problems. The implant is placed surgically to stimulate the balance nerve.
This Phase 3 trial tests whether repeated injections can reduce attacks of chronic cluster headache. It may help people who have frequent, consistent attacks and can track them closely during the study.
This trial compares two treatments for sudden hearing loss: steroid pills taken by mouth or steroid injections into the ear. It aims to find which is more effective for patients who developed hearing loss within the last 2 weeks.
This trial tests an oral solution of isosorbide, a medication that may reduce fluid buildup in the inner ear, to see if it can prevent vertigo attacks in people with Meniere's disease. It could be an option if you have frequent, one-sided vertigo and have not had prior ear surgeries or certain injections.
