Promethazine (Phenergan) is commonly used to treat nausea and vomiting associated with Ménière's disease. Diazepam (Valium) is a benzodiazepine that may be used to reduce anxiety and vertigo associated with the disease, but it does not directly address nausea and vomiting. Meclizine (Antivert) and dimenhydrinate (Dramamine) are both used to treat motion sickness and vertigo, but may not be as effective in treating severe nausea and vomiting in Ménière's disease.
