What Betahistine Dihydrochloride Is and How We Compound It for Mission
Betahistine, in plain terms, is a histamine-type medicine for oral use. Overseas it's an everyday prescription for Meniere's disease. Here it only exists when a pharmacy compounds it for a specific patient. We fill those orders for Mission and the rest of Rio Grande Valley, including McAllen, Edinburg and Pharr. We deliver to homes along Interstate 2 and U.S. Route 83 and around Border Theater.
The pharmacist goes through the order, the salt form and the directions. Then we get to work. If the prescription has expired, we'll need a new one before a refill. Something doesn't look right? Give us a call at 972-214-0350.
This isn't medical advice, so please check with your prescriber.
Is a Betahistine Capsule Available in Mission?
There's no retail betahistine anywhere in the US, so a Mission drugstore has nothing to sell you. A compounding pharmacy can prepare it for an individual patient on a prescriber's order. We compound it in Plano once the prescription arrives, and it goes to your Mission address or waits for you at the counter. A prescription is required, and the decision is your prescriber's.
Is Nasal Spray Betahistine Available in Mission?
Our pharmacy prepares betahistine nasal spray at 80 mg/mL. It requires a prescription and is prepared for the individual patient. Please ask your prescriber whether it fits your care. Available quantities are 3 mL, 6 mL, 12 mL or 18 mL, or the quantity written on your prescription.
What Prescribers Use Betahistine For
We don't know how a Mission patient will respond, and neither can anyone else ahead of time. Meniere's disease comes up most, along with vertigo that starts in the inner ear and sometimes ringing in the ears. Results differ from trial to trial, so the evidence is weak. Individual results vary. Consult your provider.
This information isn't medical advice. Your prescriber is the right person to ask.
Betahistine Side Effects
The side effects named most often abroad are stomach upset, nausea and headache. A rash or itching turns up every so often. Please tell us about asthma, ulcers, pheochromocytoma, antihistamines or MAO inhibitors before you start.
Frequently Asked Questions
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.
How far is UnityRX Pharmacy from Mission, and do I need to visit?
You can skip the trip: we deliver compounded medication to Mission for free. For those who do want to visit, the pharmacy is at 811 E Plano Pkwy Ste 116 in Plano, about eight to nine hours by car from most of Rio Grande Valley.
What do prescribers use betahistine for?
Prescribers reach for it in Meniere's disease and repeated vertigo spells from the ear. Because evidence is rated low certainty, we promise no result. Individual results vary. Consult your provider.
Do you deliver compounded betahistine to Mission?
Yes, free of charge. A courier brings it to your door in Mission, and Plano pickup is available as well.
Is betahistine 16 mg available?
Yes. Betahistine 16 mg is available as a compounded capsule, as are 8 mg and 24 mg, based on your prescriber's request. Send the order to UnityRX and we prepare the strength written. Individual results vary. Consult your provider.
Why can't you get betahistine in the US?
A past US approval was withdrawn over the efficacy evidence and no maker has applied again. It isn't banned, so a compounded order for one patient remains possible.
What is betahistine?
An oral medicine that resembles histamine, licensed in several countries outside the US and studied mostly for Meniere's disease symptoms. UnityRX compounds it only on prescription, for one patient at a time.
Can I buy betahistine over the counter?
There is no over-the-counter option. You need a prescription, and the order has to be filled by a compounding pharmacy.
What form does compounded betahistine come in?
Capsules made for one patient. Overseas products can't be dispensed here, and the prescriber sets the form and directions.
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.
Can my Mission prescriber send a betahistine prescription to UnityRX?
Yes, by e-prescribe, by fax to 972-214-0351, or by phone at 972-214-0350. A prescription held at another pharmacy moves through our online transfer form.
