Abstract

Background: Meniere’s disease is a clinical disorder defined as the idiopathic syndrome of endolymphatic hydrops. Meniere’s disease has a prevalence of about 200 cases per 100,000 people in the United States. Prevalence increases linearly with increasing age, especially over 60 years. Men and women are estimated to be proportional in the number of cases. The etiology of Meniere’s disease is currently known to be caused by intrinsic factors and extrinsic factors. Symptoms of Meniere’s disease include recurrent spontaneous episodic vertigo, fluctuating hearing loss, ear fullness, and tinnitus. Treatment of Meniere’s disease can be divided into pharmacological therapy and non-pharmacological therapy. In some cases, complaints can be reduced to 80-90 percent. Case Report: A woman, aged 65 years, complained of constant ringing in her right ear, feeling full and accompanied by decreased hearing in the right ear, spinning dizziness that is not related to changing position, especially when she is tired, ringing in the ear, a feeling of fullness in the ear since 3 months ago. Head MRI results were normal. The patient was treated with HCT 1×50 mg, prednisone 1×80 mg for 7 days, KSR 3×1 tablet, betahistine 2×24 mg. Patients experience improvement in complaints even though the complaints do not disappear completely. Conclusion: The diagnosis of Meniere’s disease is established by clinical symptoms, namely recurrent spontaneous episodic vertigo, fluctuating hearing loss, ear fullness, and tinnitus. Appropriate therapy in Meniere’s disease can reduce complaints and improve the patient’s quality of life.
