Ginkgovert also increases blood flow to the brain which reduces the pressure of excess fluid in the inner ear and protects it from damage. It may be taken with or without food. Take this medicine as advised by your doctor, preferably at a fixed time each day to maintain a consistent level of medicine in the blood. If you miss a dose of this medicine, take it as soon as you remember. Do not skip any doses and finish the full course of treatment. Never stop this medicine suddenly without talking to the doctor.
