What Betahistine Dihydrochloride Is and How We Compound It for Smithville
Here's what it is: a swallowed medicine that behaves like a histamine cousin. Other countries hand it out for Meniere's disease. In the States you can only get it compounded for you. Prescriptions from Smithville, other Central Texas towns like Georgetown and Belton and nearby towns in Central Texas all come to the same pharmacy. That includes homes around Buescher State Park in Smithville.
The pharmacist double-checks the directions and salt form before we start. We can refill it as long as the prescription is still active. Call 972-214-0350 if you want to talk through the order first.
Nothing here is medical advice. Your prescriber is the one to ask.
Is a Betahistine Capsule Available in Smithville?
The regular wholesalers don't carry betahistine, so a Smithville pharmacy has nothing to order. Compounding allows the pharmacy to prepare it for one patient at a time. Send us a prescription and we prepare it here in Plano. It comes to your door, or you can pick it up. A prescription is required, and the decision stays with your prescriber.
Is Nasal Spray Betahistine Available in Smithville?
The answer is yes: compounded betahistine nasal spray comes in an 80 mg/mL strength. 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
You'll mostly see it ordered for Meniere's disease, and sometimes for inner-ear vertigo with tinnitus. We can't tell you what it'll do for you. Your prescriber is the one to ask. It hasn't been proven either way, and certainty is low. Individual results vary. Consult your provider.
This isn't advice for your own case. Please check with your prescriber.
Betahistine Side Effects
The side effects named most often abroad are stomach upset, nausea and headache. Some people get a rash or itching, but that's less common. Mention asthma, ulcers and pheochromocytoma to your prescriber. Same goes for antihistamines and MAO inhibitors.

No visit is needed, because delivery to Smithville is free. Should you want to come in, the pharmacy is at 811 E Plano Pkwy Ste 116 in Plano, about two to three and a half hours by car from most of Central Texas.
What do prescribers use betahistine for?
Prescribers think of it chiefly for Meniere's disease and vertigo of inner-ear origin, and some add tinnitus or ear fullness to that list. Findings vary between studies, so the prescriber makes the call. Individual results vary. Consult your provider.
Can my Smithville prescriber send a betahistine prescription to UnityRX?
A Smithville prescriber has three ways to reach us: e-prescribe, fax to 972-214-0351, or a call to 972-214-0350. Transfers from another pharmacy use our online transfer form.
What is betahistine?
Think of it as a histamine-related medicine used abroad for inner-ear symptoms. Here, UnityRX compounds it per prescription for a single patient.
Can I buy betahistine over the counter?
No over-the-counter version exists. Only a prescription filled by a compounding pharmacy will do.
Is betahistine 16 mg available?
Yes, we can compound betahistine at 16 mg, and also at 8 mg or 24 mg, whichever your prescriber requests. The strength on the order is what we prepare. Individual results vary. Consult your provider.
What are the side effects of betahistine?
Labels abroad mention stomach upset, nausea and headache most, and sometimes rash or itching. Caution is advised with asthma, peptic ulcer or pheochromocytoma. Your prescriber and pharmacist can go over your own history.
What form does compounded betahistine come in?
You receive capsules compounded for you alone. The products sold in other countries are not an option, and the order specifies everything else.
Is betahistine available in the United States?
Betahistine is not FDA-approved and is not sold commercially in the United States. In Texas it is available only as a compounded prescription prepared for one patient, and only a licensed prescriber can decide whether it is appropriate. 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?
An earlier approval was pulled over doubts about the efficacy evidence, and no manufacturer has filed again. It is not banned, which leaves compounding for one patient on a prescriber's order.
Do you deliver compounded betahistine to Smithville?
We do, at no charge, to every address in Smithville. Pickup at 811 E Plano Pkwy Ste 116 in Plano is the alternative.
