English term or phrase: Woozy

Hello there,
Could you help me find an equivalent Arabic word for "woozy?"
Merriam-Webster dictionary defines it as follows:
1: mentally unclear or hazy
seems a little woozy, not quite knowing what to say
—J. A. Lukacs
2: affected with dizziness, mild nausea, or weakness
3: having a soft, indistinct, or unfocused quality: VAGUE, FUZZY
It is used in the context of recounting possible side effects of certain medications. e.g. This medication might make you feel dizzy or woozy.
The way I get the sense of the word, it describes a generalized feeling of wobbliness or unsteadiness derived from a sense of weakness together with an inability to think clearly. It is usually translated to تشوش الذهن, but I feel this translation does not capture the physical aspect of the word. Some glossaries translate it to الوهن, but, again, I think this one ignores the mental aspect of the word.
I would like to hear your suggestions for the word and thanks a lot in advance.

دوخة/دوار

Explanation:
نظرة عامة
الدوخة هو مصطلح يُستخدم لوصف مجموعة من الأحاسيس، مثل الشعور بالإغماء أو الوهن أو الضعف أو اختلال التوازن. تسمى الدوخة التي تخلق الشعور الزائف بأنك أو ما يحيط بك يلف أو يتحرك (الدوار).

وتعتبر الدوخة واحدة من بين الأسباب الأكثر شيوعًا لقيام البالغين بزيارة أطبائهم. كما يمكن أن تؤثر نوبات الدوخة المتكررة أو الدوخة المستمرة على حياتك. لكن الدوخة نادرًا ما تشكل خطورة تهدد الحياة.

ويتوقف علاج الدوخة على سبب الأعراض لديك. وبالرغم من أنه عادة ما يكون فعالاً، ألا أن المشكلة قد تتكرر.
