What Betahistine Dihydrochloride Is and How We Compound It for McAllen
Doctors overseas have prescribed betahistine for years. It's a histamine-style medicine you take by mouth. Overseas it's an everyday prescription for Meniere's disease. Here it only exists when a pharmacy compounds it for a specific patient. That covers McAllen as well as Edinburg, Mission and Pharr. If you live near McAllen Nature Center in McAllen, the delivery is free too.
We check the order first. The directions, the salt form, all of it. We can refill it as long as the prescription is still active. Confused about your order? Call 972-214-0350.
This is general information and not medical advice. Ask your prescriber.
Is a Betahistine Capsule Available in McAllen?
No drugstore in McAllen carries betahistine, and none can order it, since no US product exists. Compounding allows the pharmacy to prepare it for one patient at a time. Once the prescription is here, we compound it in Plano and ship it out to your address. A prescription is required, and the decision is your prescriber's.
Is Nasal Spray Betahistine Available in McAllen?
Yes. Betahistine nasal spray is offered as a compounded medication, 80 mg/mL. It is prepared in 3 mL, 6 mL, 12 mL or 18 mL amounts, or in the quantity your prescriber orders. It requires a prescription and is prepared for the individual patient. Please ask your prescriber whether it fits your care.
What Prescribers Use Betahistine For
Mostly it's Meniere's disease or repeated vertigo from the inner ear that gets a prescriber thinking about betahistine. Nobody has settled it yet, and the evidence stays low certainty. We make no outcome promises, in McAllen or anywhere else. Individual results vary. Consult your provider.
Please don't treat this as medical advice. Ask your prescriber.
Betahistine Side Effects
Rash or itching is listed too, just further down. If you have asthma, ulcers or pheochromocytoma, check with your prescriber first. Antihistamines and MAO inhibitors can interact.
Overseas labels mention stomach upset, nausea and headaches more than anything else.

Is betahistine available in the United States?
Betahistine is not FDA-approved and is not sold commercially in the United States.

No drugstore carries it, but a prescriber can still send us an order for a compounded version for one patient.
Why can't you get betahistine in the US?
No company sells it here after an earlier approval was withdrawn when the evidence was questioned. Compounding for a single patient on a prescriber's order is still allowed.
What is betahistine?
It is a histamine-related medicine used abroad, mainly for Meniere's disease. In the US we prepare it as a compounded capsule on a prescriber's order for one named patient.
Can I buy betahistine over the counter?
No over-the-counter version exists. Only a prescription filled by a compounding pharmacy will do.
