VERTISTER MD 8 TAB

About

VERTISTER MD 8 TAB contains Betahistine, a synthetic histamine analogue primarily used for the symptomatic treatment of Meniere's disease and its debilitating associated symptoms, which include severe vertigo, persistent tinnitus (ringing in the ears), and progressive hearing loss. Betahistine is believed to exert its therapeutic effects by improving microcirculation within the inner ear, specifically enhancing blood flow to the labyrinth, and by reducing the pressure of endolymphatic fluid. Its pharmacological action involves acting as a weak H1 receptor agonist and a potent H3 receptor antagonist, which helps to modulate neurotransmitter release in the brainstem and further optimize inner ear microcirculation. The "MD" (Mouth Dissolving) formulation offers significant advantages, allowing for rapid absorption and enhanced convenience, making it particularly suitable for patients who experience difficulty swallowing conventional tablets or require prompt relief from acute symptoms of Meniere's disease.
