Histasyn (Betahistine 16mg)

Histasyn 16mg (containing Betahistine dihydrochloride) is used for the management of inner ear disorders, particularly those that affect balance and hearing. It works similarly to the 8mg version but at a higher dose, often allowing for less frequent dosing or stronger therapeutic effect.
