Can Betahistine Help to Manage Your Meniere’s Disease Symptoms? 

Living with Meniere’s disease can resemble a never-ending rollercoaster ride, with vertigo episodes striking with little or no notice, roaring tinnitus, pressure in the ear(s), and fluctuations in hearing that substantially impact your life. Even though there is currently no cure for Meniere’s disease, betahistine has emerged as a first-line treatment to reduce symptoms and prevent attacks.At Allure Compounding Pharmacy, we compound betahistine in formulations specific to you!

How Betahistine Works for Meniere’s  Disease

Betahistine is a vestibular suppressant that targets the root causes of Meniere’s  by:

✔ Improving inner ear blood flow (reducing fluid pressure)
✔ Regulating endolymphatic fluid (preventing the buildup that triggers attacks)
✔ Balancing neurotransmitter activity (calming overactive vestibular signals)

Unlike sedating anti-vertigo drugs, betahistine is non-drowsy and designed for long-term use.

Potential Benefits of Betahistine for Meniere’s 

1. Fewer Vertigo Attacks

  • Reduces frequency, severity, and duration of spinning episodes
  • Helps prevent drop attacks (Tumarkin crises)

2. Reduced Tinnitus & Ear Fullness

  • Many patients report quieter ringing and less pressure
  • May help stabilize hearing fluctuations

3. Improved Daily Function

  • Less motion sensitivity between attacks
  • Restores confidence in driving, working, and socializing

4. Long-Term Protection

  • Some studies suggest it may slow disease progression
  • Often more effective when started early in diagnosis
