I just found out from my pharmacist that Papaverine is no longer being made. It, along with dyazide, has helped keep me symptom free from my Meniere's Disease for 7 years. Do you know of any other medication that works just like Papaverine?
Thank you

Not really. Papaverine is opioid alkaloid with many adverse effects (which may account for its withdrawal from the market)
You are best to discuss your treatment options with your doctor.
