  • From this study (1 month ago):

  • Since starting Spiriva two months ago in addition to routine medications (Symbicort, Proair, Ipatroprium plus others),I have increasingly experienced a few moments of vertigo when I sit up from lying down,and sometimes when I stand from sitting. Almost always after standing up, it takes a while to get my balance stabilized for walking. Probably because of scolisis,I have had a "chronic" problem with imbalance for years without any vertigo even before a severe episode of bilateral vestibular issue with falls in 2004 (recovered with therapy, no recurrence since). I have started physical therapy for the imbalance as well as hip/thigh pain, but want to know the cause.
