Betran 24mg Tablet is used to prevent and treat a disorder of the inner ear known as Ménière's disease, which includes symptoms such as dizziness, ringing in the ears, and loss of hearing. Betran 24mg Tablet should be swallowed whole with water and taken at the same time(s) each day to get the most benefit. Your doctor will decide what is the correct dose to relieve your symptoms and how often you need to take it. You may need to take this medicine for several months and you should take it for as long as prescribed by your doctor even if you start feeling better.
Betran 24mg Tablet is a histamine analog. It works by improving the blood flow in the inner ear which reduces the pressure of excess fluid there. Excess fluid can send signals to the brain causing nausea, dizziness, or spinning sensations (symptoms of Ménière's disease). Betran 24mg Tablet additionally dampens down the nerve signals sent from the inner ear to the brain relieving the symptoms of Ménière's disease.
What is Meniere's disease? Does it go away?
Meniere's disease is a disorder of the inner ear that affects balance and hearing. It presents with symptoms like vertigo, fluctuating hearing, tinnitus (ringing in the ears), and ear pressure. Additionally, dizziness often accompanies these symptoms and may cause nausea and vomiting. Treatment options for Meniere's disease depend on individual factors; therefore, discussion with a healthcare professional is necessary to determine the most appropriate treatment plan.
Is Betran 24mg Tablet effective?
Betran 24mg Tablet can be effective when taken as prescribed by your doctor and for the recommended duration. Do not stop taking it even if you experience symptom improvement, as stopping prematurely may cause symptoms to return or worsen. Always follow the guidance of your healthcare provider regarding dosage and administration.
What are the triggers for Meniere's disease?
Meniere's disease can be triggered by various factors such as stress, excessive work or fatigue, emotional distress, additional illnesses, and sudden changes in pressure. Certain foods like dairy products, caffeine, alcohol, and high-sodium food also may trigger symptoms in some individuals. A low-salt diet (2 grams per day) may help manage vertigo associated with Meniere's disease.
