ATC Code

N07CA01 (Betahistine)

Active Substance

Betahistine (Rec.INN registered by WHO)

Clinical-Pharmacological Group

Drug improving microcirculation of the labyrinth, used for pathology of the vestibular apparatus

Pharmacotherapeutic Group

Other agents for the treatment of nervous system diseases; medications for the treatment of dizziness

Pharmacological Action

A synthetic analogue of histamine. It acts similarly to histamine, mainly on histamine H1 receptors.

It causes dilation of precapillaries, in particular, facilitates microcirculation in the labyrinth. Furthermore, Betahistine regulates endolymph pressure in the labyrinth and cochlea, leading to clinical improvement in dizziness of various etiologies.

It reduces the frequency and intensity of dizziness, decreases tinnitus, and contributes to hearing improvement in cases of its reduction. It increases the tone of the smooth muscles of the bronchi and gastrointestinal tract. It may cause increased secretion of gastric juice.

Pharmacokinetics

After oral administration, betahistine dihydrochloride is rapidly and almost completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Plasma protein binding is low.

It is almost completely eliminated from the body with urine within 24 hours. T1/2 is 3-4 hours.

Indications

Ménière’s disease; syndromes characterized by dizziness, tinnitus and/or progressive hearing loss, including labyrinthine hydrops of the inner ear, vestibular and labyrinthine disorders (including dizziness, tinnitus and ear pain, headache, nausea, vomiting, hearing loss), vestibular neuritis, labyrinthitis, benign positional vertigo (including after neurosurgical operations); vertebrobasilar insufficiency, post-traumatic encephalopathy, cerebral vascular atherosclerosis (as part of complex therapy).
