About the Product – Betahistine Hydrochloride (HISTAKON) 8mg Tablet 100’s

Betahistine Hydrochloride (HISTAKON) 8mg Tablet 100’s is a histamine analog prescribed for the treatment of Ménière’s disease and other vestibular disorders. Each tablet contains 8mg of Betahistine Hydrochloride, a compound that improves inner ear circulation and reduces the pressure of excess fluid in the labyrinth, helping to manage symptoms such as vertigo, tinnitus, hearing loss, and a sensation of fullness in the ear.

Formulated under the HISTAKON brand, this medication is frequently used by ENT specialists and neurologists to reduce the frequency and intensity of vertigo attacks in both acute and maintenance settings. Its favorable safety profile, minimal sedation, and effectiveness make it ideal for long-term therapy.

Packaged in 100’s, Betahistine (HISTAKON) is suitable for hospital use, outpatient care, and pharmacies catering to vestibular and balance disorder patients.
