About Betahistine (CENVERT-16) 16mg Tablet 100’s

Betahistine (CENVERT 16) 16mg Tablet is an oral medication commonly used to treat symptoms associated with Ménière’s disease and other balance disorders. Each tablet contains 16 mg of betahistine dihydrochloride, a histamine analog that acts by improving microcirculation in the inner ear, which helps reduce the frequency and severity of vertigo attacks, tinnitus (ringing in the ears), and hearing loss.

CENVERT 16 works by increasing blood flow in the inner ear and reducing the pressure that causes dizziness and balance disturbances. Its mechanism involves partial histamine H1 receptor agonism and strong antagonism at H3 receptors, leading to enhanced vestibular compensation and normalization of endolymph fluid.

This medication is often prescribed for long-term management of balance disorders, and patients may experience gradual improvement over several weeks of consistent use. It is well-tolerated and commonly used by ENT specialists and neurologists to help individuals regain their balance and improve their quality of life.
