Is there an alternative medication that i can take for menieres disease. i have had side effects from betahistine.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Steroids: Some meniere's patients benefit from oral steroids and sometimes steroids injected behind the ear drum (transtympanic injection). You should also have a diet low in salt and avoid caffeine and alcohol. Consult your ENT doctor if you are having side effects from the medicines prescribed.
