How it works
Betahub 8mg Tablet is a histamine analog. It works by improving the blood flow in the inner ear, which reduces the pressure of excess fluid there. Excess fluid can send signals to the brain causing nausea, dizziness, or spinning sensations (symptoms of Ménière's disease). Betahub 8mg Tablet additionally dampens down the nerve signals sent from the inner ear to the brain, relieving the symptoms of Ménière's disease.

Frequently asked questions
What is Meniere's disease, and does it go away?
Meniere's disease is a disorder affecting the balance and hearing organs in the inner ear, characterized by symptoms such as vertigo, fluctuations in hearing, tinnitus, and pressure in the ears. The condition may also cause dizziness, nausea, and vomiting. Treatment for Meniere's disease depends on individual factors, and an open discussion with a doctor can help determine the best treatment strategy.
Is Betahub 8mg Tablet effective?
Betahub 8mg Tablet is effective when used as directed by your doctor. It is essential to continue taking the medication as prescribed, even if you experience improvement in your condition. Stopping the medication too early may lead to a recurrence or worsening of symptoms.
What triggers Meniere's disease?
Meniere's disease can be triggered by various factors, including stress, overwork, fatigue, emotional distress, underlying illnesses, and pressure changes. Certain foods, such as dairy products, caffeine, alcohol, and those with high sodium content, may also trigger the condition. A low-sodium diet (2 grams per day) can help manage vertigo in Meniere's disease.
What if I forget to take a dose of Betahub 8mg Tablet?
If you miss a dose of Betahub 8mg Tablet, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and take the next dose as scheduled. Avoid doubling the dose to make up for the missed one, as this may increase the risk of side effects.
Is stress a reason for vertigo?
Mental stress can exacerbate vertigo, but it is not a direct cause of the condition. Stress can worsen various forms of vertigo, but it does not produce vertigo on its own.
What are the causes of vertigo?
Vertigo can be caused by a sudden drop in blood pressure, dehydration, or rapid changes in posture. Motion sickness, certain medications, and inner ear problems (Meniere's disease, acoustic neuroma) may also contribute to vertigo. In some cases, vertigo can be a symptom of other underlying disorders (multiple sclerosis, head trauma).
