What Betahistine Dihydrochloride Is and How We Compound It for Live Oak
Betahistine is a bit of a histamine imitator, and you take it by mouth. You won't see it in a US pharmacy catalog. Elsewhere it's licensed mainly for Meniere's disease, so here it has to be compounded. We handle prescriptions from Live Oak and the rest of Coastal Bend and South Texas, such as other Coastal Bend and South Texas towns like Eagle Pass and Rockport. That includes homes around Retama Park in Live Oak.
Every prescription is read by the pharmacist before we begin. A refill only goes out if the prescription is still valid. Not sure about something? Call us at 972-214-0350 and we'll walk you through it.

Is a Betahistine Capsule Available in Live Oak?
Can a Live Oak pharmacy just order betahistine in? No. There's no US product for them to order. Compounding is how a prescription for it is prepared in the US. Hand us the prescription and the rest happens in Plano: we compound it, then deliver it to Live Oak or set it aside for pickup. Only a prescriber can order it for you.
Is Nasal Spray Betahistine Available in Live Oak?
Yes, a compounded nasal spray is available at 80 mg/mL. It requires a prescription and is prepared for the individual patient. Please ask your prescriber whether it fits your care. We prepare 3 mL, 6 mL, 12 mL or 18 mL, or another quantity as prescribed.
What Prescribers Use Betahistine For
If a prescriber orders it, it's most often for Meniere's disease or inner-ear vertigo. The studies don't agree with each other, so certainty is low. We make no outcome promises, in Live Oak or anywhere else. Individual results vary. Consult your provider.

Betahistine Side Effects
Some labels also list a rash or itchy skin. Upset stomach, nausea and headaches top the list on overseas labels. Share your full medicine list with your prescriber and pharmacist. It matters most with asthma, ulcers, pheochromocytoma, antihistamines and MAO inhibitors.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I buy betahistine over the counter?
No over-the-counter version exists. Only a prescription filled by a compounding pharmacy will do.
What do prescribers use betahistine for?
Inner-ear vertigo and Meniere's disease are the usual reasons, occasionally along with ringing or fullness in the ear. Studies disagree, and the prescriber decides. Individual results vary. Consult your provider.
