Pharmacological action

Betagistin acts mainly on histamine H1- and H3 receptors of the inner ear and vestibular nuclei of the central nervous system. By direct agonistic action on the H1 receptors of the vessels of the inner ear, as well as indirectly through the action on the H3 receptors, it improves microcirculation and capillary permeability, normalizes the pressure of the endolymph in the labyrinth and cochlea. However, betahistine increases blood flow in the basilar artery.

It has a pronounced central effect, being an inhibitor of the H3 receptors of the vestibular nerve nuclei. It improves the conductivity in the neurons of the vestibular nuclei at the level of the brain stem.
