Betahistine Mesylate Side Effect

5 Topics Found

I was taking this medicine when i was admitted in the hospital because of vertigo. The doctor let me take this since my first day in the ward. During my first night in the ward, i started to palpitate every time i tried to sleep. First night was not bad, i managed to sleep but keep waking up from time to time. I told about my doctor about the palpitation but they said they cannot do about this since my ecg is normal. I had three sleepless nights as the palpitation is getting worse everytime i close my eyes. I just realized that it is because of this medicine when i stopped taking betahistine mesylate, palpitation stopped little by little. Im just sharing this for those people who will experience the same thing taking this medicine. ## Pilpitation is accuring every time i take betahistine

Merislon 6 mg. tabs in foil packet was given to me by MD @ McCormick Hospital in Chiangmai Thailand when I had vertigo. It worked well with no side effects. Active ingredient is Betahistinew mesylate. Is Merislon 6 mg. available in retail size (ie 10 to 20 tabs) in U.S.A.? ## No, I'm sorry, there is currently no form of Betahistine that is approved and available in the U.S. The FDA has found the studies that were done on it to be questionable and provide no proof as to its efficacy. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I have vertigo and going to vestibular therapy for about two months, you can go to a certify medIcal supply/pharmacy, they can make a compound betahistatine capsule order by you Medical doctor. I had it MADE in Boston, I feel much better with this medication, be...
