Description:
Tablets of white or almost white color, flat-cylindrical shape, with a bevel and a risk (for dosages of 16 mg and 24 mg). Marbling may be observed. The main active substance Betahistine Release form Tablets Dosage 16 mg Pharmacotherapeutic group Preparations for the elimination of dizziness Pharmacodynamics The mechanism of action of betahistine is partially known. In vitro, betahistine facilitates histaminergic transmission due to its partial H1 agonist and H3 antagonist effects. In animals, after intravenous administration, betahistine reduces the electrical activity of polysynaptic neurons of the vestibular nuclei. Betahistine does not cause sedation. Absorption and distribution When administered orally, betahistine is rapidly and almost completely absorbed. Eating significantly slows down the absorption of betahistine without changing the level of absorption. Metabolism and excretion Betahistine is excreted in the urine as 2-pyridylacetic acid. The half-life is approximately 3.5 hours. Almost completely eliminated within 24 hours. Indications for use Symptomatic treatment of recurrent vertigo with or without cochlear symptoms. Dosage and administration Inside, during meals, the tablets are swallowed without chewing, with a glass of water. The risk on the 16 mg and 24 mg tablets is intended solely to facilitate taking one tablet (by breaking the tablet into two halves), and not to divide the tablet into two doses. The recommended duration of treatment is 2 to 3 months, treatment can be extended depending on the course of the disease, intermittent or continuous courses. Betahistine-LF 16 mg The usual dosage is 1 tablet 3 times a day. Special groups of patients Impaired renal function. There are no data on the use in patients with renal insufficiency. Liver dysfunction. There are no data on the use in patients with hepatic insufficiency. Elderly patients. Extensive post-marketing experience indicates that dose adjustment in elderly patients is not required. However, Betahistine-LF should be used with caution in elderly patients because the available safety data are limited. Children. Betahistine-LF is not recommended for use in children and adolescents under the age of 18 due to insufficient data on efficacy and safety. Use during pregnancy and lactation Pregnancy Studies in animals have not shown any teratogenic effect. Given the absence of any teratogenic effect in animals, no malformative effect is expected in humans. Substances that cause malformations in humans are now considered to have a proven teratogenic effect in animals in well-controlled studies in two animal species. So far, not enough relevant data have been obtained to assess the possible teratogenic or embryotoxic effect of betahistine when used during pregnancy. Therefore, as a precautionary measure, it is not recommended to take betahistine during pregnancy. Lactation Since there are no data on the excretion of betahistine in breast milk, the risk is not known; therefore, breast-feeding is not recommended during the period of betahistine use. Influence on the ability to drive vehicles or potentially dangerous mechanisms There is no data on the effect of the drug on the ability to drive vehicles or other mechanisms.
