Dizziness on full 1Kmg Zytiga

I'm just wondering if anyone else experiences dizziness in association with taking 1000 mg Zytiga. I find that laying down on my back and getting up, or with my head low and then raising it I have the experience of having just stepped off of a spinning ride. Where I have to wait just a moment, or two for my balance to stabilize. That and there is always just a little dizziness. Nothing to make me nauseous, or inhibit activities, just enough to make me ..... careful.

Anywho doesn't seem too serious, just another thing to overcome. BTW I did go through a battery of tests, so it's not my brain, diabetes, or heart disease.

Thanks for any inputs

Yep. Also, dehydration might cause this.

Yes. Intermittent for me. Comes and goes. Never thought of dehydration. I will check that out.

to zenbee13, I'm not taking Zytiga but it happens to me. It's the blood suddenly rushing out of your brain since you were just lying down. Just make sure you pause for a few moments before you begin walking.

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.

It’s called orthostatic hypotension. Effects blood pressure. Many pills we take cause it. Always get up slow. It will pass.
