Medicine Description microserc 8mg
Microserc 8 mg tablets is a medication that acts as an analog of histamine, specifically targeting the H1 and H3 receptors in the inner ear and central nervous system. Its primary action involves enhancing microcirculation in the inner ear, which is crucial for maintaining balance and auditory functions. By promoting blood flow, betahistine reduces the pressure within the inner ear, thereby alleviating symptoms associated with Meniere's disease, such as vertigo and tinnitus. Additionally, it decreases the frequency and severity of episodes of vertigo by modulating neurotransmitter release, which helps stabilize the vestibular system and improve overall balance.
