BeSteady 16mg Betahistine Tablets - 1 Strip of 10 Tablets
Conditions like Meniere's disease trigger dangerous fluid pressure buildup in the inner ear, leading to sudden, debilitating attacks of vertigo (spinning dizziness), tinnitus (ringing ears), and progressive hearing loss. BeSteady 16mg provides targeted vestibular stabilization. Formulated with Betahistine, a structural analogue of histamine, it acts as a strong vasodilator in the inner ear. By improving microcirculation, it effectively drains excess inner ear fluid, restoring balance and eliminating vertigo spells.
How to Use / Operate
Take exactly as prescribed by your physician, typically one tablet two or three times a day. Swallow whole with a glass of water, ideally during or immediately after meals to prevent mild gastric upset.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is BeSteady 16mg used for?
It is a prescription vestibular medication used to treat the severe dizziness, vertigo, and tinnitus associated with Meniere's disease.
Will this stop my dizziness immediately?
No, Betahistine is not an acute rescue medication. It works cumulatively; it may take several weeks of consistent use to fully reduce the frequency of vertigo attacks.
Important Clinical Considerations
Strictly contraindicated in patients with active peptic ulcers or a pheochromocytoma (adrenal gland tumor). Use with caution if you have severe asthma, as histamine analogues can rarely trigger bronchospasms.
