DESCRIPTION

Betatec-16 Tablets (Betahistine Dihydrochloride 16 mg) is an antispinal medication used to treat Meniere's disease, a disorder of the inner ear. This medication helps to relieve symptoms of Meniere's disease such as dizziness (lightheadedness or spinning sensation), tinnitus, nausea, and hearing loss. It works by improving blood circulation in the inner ear. This reduces the buildup of pressure within the inner ear.

INDICATION

• Meniere's Disease: Betatec-16 Tablets (Betahistine Dihydrochloride 16 mg) reduce the frequency and severity of vertigo (dizziness), tinnitus (ringing in the ears), and hearing loss associated with this inner ear disorder.

• Vestibular Vertigo: Betatec-16 Tablets (Betahistine Dihydrochloride 16 mg) alleviate symptoms of dizziness and balance disorders related to vestibular system dysfunction.

• Labyrinthitis: Betatec-16 Tablets (Betahistine Dihydrochloride 16 mg) help manage symptoms of dizziness and imbalance resulting from inflammation of the inner ear labyrinth.

• Peripheral Vertigo: Betatec-16 Tablets (Betahistine Dihydrochloride 16 mg) treat dizziness caused by disorders of the inner ear or vestibular system.

MECHANISM OF ACTION

Betatec-16 Tablets (Betahistine Dihydrochloride 16 mg) relieves the symptoms of Meniere's disease by acting as a partial agonist at H1 histamine receptors and as an antagonist at H3 histamine receptors. This mechanism increases the release of histamine, dilates blood vessels and improves microcirculation in the inner ear. As a result, pressure in the inner ear is reduced, blood circulation is improved and fluid balance is stabilized, reducing dizziness and tinnitus and normalizing vestibular function.
