Vertin is a tablet that can help with symptoms like nausea or motion sickness associated with vertigo. It is a long-term treatment that helps reduce fluid buildup and balance inner ear fluid.

Vertin is a medicine that contains betahistine. It is a drug similar to a chemical in the body called histamine, and is used to treat several conditions affecting the inner ear, including Ménière’s disease (which impacts balance), BPPV (a type of vertigo that makes you feel like your head is spinning), and labyrinthitis (an inflammation in the ear that also causes vertigo).
These issues are linked to inner ear problems, possibly due to pressure issues and poor drainage of inner ear fluids. The symptoms of these conditions typically come on suddenly and can include dizziness, vertigo, unsteadiness, ringing in the ears, nausea, and sometimes hearing loss.
Vertin is generally taken three times a day. It starts easing these symptoms within a few weeks of beginning the treatment and is usually continued for several months.
Vertin, which contains the active ingredient betahistine, is mainly used to help with inner ear disorders by improving the blood flow in that area. This is especially useful in treating Ménière's disease, a condition where fluid build-up in the inner ear can lead to symptoms like vertigo (a spinning sensation), ringing in the ears, and hearing loss. Betahistine is believed to work by widening blood vessels and improving fluid drainage in the ear, which helps reduce these symptoms.
Vertin may relieve some symptoms of vertigo in BPPV and labyrinthitis, but it doesn't address the underlying causes directly. BPPV, for example, is usually treated with specific head movements in physical therapy that help move the dislodged fluid back into place. Labyrinthitis is often caused by an infection and needs treatment that targets the bacteria causing it, and reduces inflammation. (Betahistine isn’t an antibiotic so it doesn't work like this.)
Vertin comes in 8 mg, 16 mg, 24 mg and 48 mg doses and is usually taken two to three times a day, depending on the prescription.
These are immediate-release tablets which release the active ingredient betahistine into the bloodstream shortly after you take it.
Vertin OD is a "once daily" verison of Vertin. The OD formulation uses a sustained-release technology, which means the medication is released gradually into the body over the day, maintaining a more consistent level of the drug in the bloodstream.
Vertin OD is available in a higher dosage form, like 24 mg or 48 mg tablets, and is designed to be taken once a day.

Here are some things to keep in mind when taking Vertin (regular formulation):
When taking Vertin OD (once daily formulation):
When you take Vertin for Meneire’s, it may take a couple of weeks before you notice any improvement in your symptoms like a decrease in the intensity of vertigo.
If you are taking Vertin for BPPV, your doctor may advise you to take it more long-term, on a 6-12 month trial basis, to see if your symptoms get any better.
If you accidentally take more Vertin than prescribed, ask your doctor for advice. Possible side effects from an overdose might include nausea, sleepiness, or mild stomach discomfort. Go to hospital if you experience severe symptoms or feel significantly unwell.
Never take a double dose in case you miss taking Vertin at your usual dosing schedule.
