Oroxylum indicum, commonly known as Indian trumpet flower or "Shyonaka" in Ayurveda, has a long history of use in traditional systems of medicine across South and Southeast Asia. In Ayurvedic and other traditional texts, the bark, root, and fruit of Oroxylum indicum are cited for their use in a variety of ailments including inflammation, respiratory problems, digestive issues, and general debility. While dizziness is not always mentioned specifically in classical Ayurvedic texts, the herb is sometimes included in formulations that address symptoms such as weakness, fatigue, or conditions that may encompass dizziness as a secondary symptom. The rationale is typically based on its properties as a tonic and rejuvenator, believed to strengthen the body and improve vitality, which, in traditional frameworks, could help with symptoms like dizziness arising from debility or weakness.

However, there is little to no direct scientific research that evaluates the efficacy of Oroxylum indicum specifically for the treatment or support of dizziness (vertigo). Most modern studies focus on its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, and antimicrobial properties. Thus, the traditional use of Oroxylum indicum for dizziness is primarily based on anecdotal and historical applications rather than robust scientific evidence.
