PHARMACHOLOGIC EFFECT

A drug that improves the microcirculation of the labyrinth, used in the pathology of the vestibular apparatus.
Betagistin acts mainly on the histamine H 1 - and H 3receptors of the inner ear and vestibular nuclei of the central nervous system. By direct agonistic action on histamine H 1 -receptors of the vessels of the inner ear, and also indirectly through the action on histamine H 3 -receptors improves microcirculation and permeability of capillaries, normalizes the pressure of the endolymph in the labyrinth and cochlea. At the same time, betagistin increases blood flow in the basilar artery.
Has a pronounced central effect, being an inhibitor of histamine H3 receptors in the nuclei of the vestibular nerve.
Normalizes the conductivity in the neurons of the vestibular nuclei at the level of the brainstem.
The clinical manifestation of these properties is a decrease in the frequency and intensity of dizziness, a decrease in noise in the ears, and improvement in hearing in the event of a decrease in it.
