How it works
Hybet 24mg 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). Hybet 24mg 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? Does it go away?
Meniere's disease is a disorder that affects the inner ear, impacting balance and hearing. Symptoms include vertigo (dizziness), fluctuating hearing loss, tinnitus (ringing in the ears), and pressure sensations in the ears. Nausea and vomiting can also occur alongside dizziness. While there's no known cure for Meniere's disease, treatment aims to manage symptoms and improve quality of life. It involves a personalized approach based on factors specific to each individual. A discussion with your doctor is crucial to determine the most effective treatment strategy in your unique case.
Is Hybet 24mg Tablet effective?
Hybet 24mg Tablet can be effective if used as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Do not stop taking it even if you experience improvement, as stopping prematurely might lead to symptom recurrence or exacerbation.
What are the triggers for Meniere's disease?
Meniere's disease can be triggered by various factors including: stress, overwork, fatigue, emotional distress, additional illnesses, and pressure changes. Certain foods like dairy products, caffeine, alcohol, and high-sodium foods might also trigger symptoms. Adopting a low-salt diet (2 grams/day) may help manage vertigo in Meniere's disease.
What if I forget to take a dose of Hybet 24mg Tablet?
If you forget a dose, take it as soon as possible. If it's almost time for the next dose, skip the missed one and take the following dose at its scheduled time. Never double the dose to compensate for the missed one, as this could increase side effects.
Is stress a reason for vertigo?
Stress can significantly exacerbate vertigo symptoms, but it's not a standalone cause of vertigo itself.
What are the causes of vertigo?
Vertigo can be triggered by sudden drops in blood pressure or dehydration. Rapid changes in position from sitting to standing can also lead to dizziness and lightheadedness. Motion sickness, certain medications, and inner ear problems such as Meniere's disease or acoustic neuroma are common causes of vertigo. It is important to note that sometimes vertigo may be a symptom of other underlying disorders (such as multiple sclerosis or head injuries).
