Majority of the patients were in the age group of 18-58 years with the median age of 32 and subjective symptomatic relief on Epley's manoeuvre and DHI on day 15, 46 out of 60 subjects reported symptomatic relief with a percentage of 76.6%. This group of 46 subjects with symptomatic relief was labeled as resolved group. The age range in resolved group was between 18 and 58 years. Remaining 14 subjects, labelled as relapsed group were prescribed beta-histine and repeat Epley's maneuver was performed to assess the effectiveness of adjunct therapy.
