DEAR DR. GOTT:
I have been reading of the success of lipo-flavonoids on dizziness in your column. There has never been any mention of the time span when this treatment becomes effect. Could you advise how long it takes to see some improvement?

DEAR READER:
How fast improvement is seen varies from person to person and is dependent on the severity of the problem. Some may experience improvement within a few days or weeks while others may not see results for up to six months. There is also the set of individuals for whom the product does not work.

If you have not done so, I urge you to see your doctor regarding your dizziness. This can be a symptom of benign conditions such as vertigo as well as potentially serious disorders such as heart disease. Once the cause has been determined, appropriate treatment can begin. Lipo-flavonoids should only be used for harmless but annoying conditions. Dizziness associated with heart disease should be treated by dealing with the underlying disorder.

To give you related information, I am sending you copies of my Health Report “Coronary Artery Disease” and “Ear Infections and Disorders”. Other readers who would like a copy should send a self-addressed, stamped number 10 envelope and $2 per report to Newsletter, PO Box 167, Wickliffe, OH 44092. Be sure to mention the title.
