What does it do?

Betahistine mesilate is a drug that acts on the central nervous system, primarily used in the treatment of dizziness associated with inner ear disorders such as Meniere's disease. This ingredient plays a role in alleviating symptoms by improving blood flow and regulating nerve function.

Betahistine mesilate expands blood vessels to increase blood flow to the inner ear and acts on specific neurotransmitter receptors in the brain to regulate balance sensation. This helps reduce symptoms such as dizziness and tinnitus.
