What Betahistine Dihydrochloride Is and How We Compound It for Lucas
In one line: betahistine is an oral medicine that behaves a little like histamine. For Meniere's disease, other countries prescribe it routinely. Americans get it one way, and that's a compounded prescription written for them. Patients in Lucas, other DFW towns like Hickory Creek and Allen and the rest of DFW send orders to us the same way.
Before we compound, the pharmacist checks what your prescriber wrote. Refills depend on a prescription that hasn't expired. Call 972-214-0350 and a pharmacist will go over it with you.

Is a Betahistine Capsule Available in Lucas?
Can a Lucas pharmacy just order betahistine in? No. There's no US product for them to order. A compounded preparation is the option available here. Your capsules are made in Plano. We deliver them, or you can pick them up if that suits you better. You need a prescription, and whether it's right for you is the prescriber's decision.
Is Nasal Spray Betahistine Available in Lucas?
Yes, a compounded nasal spray is available at 80 mg/mL. Prescription only. Your prescriber makes that decision, and we ship free across Texas. You can order 3 mL, 6 mL, 12 mL or 18 mL, or the amount your prescriber writes.
What Prescribers Use Betahistine For
The usual reasons are Meniere's disease and vertigo that starts in the inner ear, at times with tinnitus or a full feeling in the ear. No promises on results for Lucas patients. That's up to the prescriber. It hasn't been proven either way, and certainty is low. Individual results vary. Consult your provider.

Betahistine Side Effects
Rash or itching is mentioned too, but less often.
Some people need extra care: asthma, ulcers, pheochromocytoma. Antihistamines and MAO inhibitors can interact, so bring your whole list. Upset stomach, nausea and headaches top the list on overseas labels.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I buy betahistine over the counter?
No. A prescription is mandatory, and only a compounding pharmacy can make it in the US.
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. Shelf supply is not an option; a compounded order written for one patient is, and UnityRX can prepare it.
What do prescribers use betahistine for?
The usual reasons are Meniere's disease and recurring spells of vertigo from the ear, at times with ringing or pressure in the ear. The research does not agree, and the decision is the prescriber's. Individual results vary. Consult your provider.
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.
Is betahistine 16 mg available?
It is. Compounded betahistine 8 mg, 16 mg and 24 mg capsules are available when a prescriber orders them, and the prescriber picks the strength. Individual results vary. Consult your provider.
Can my Lucas prescriber send a betahistine prescription to UnityRX?
A Lucas 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?
