Serc (betahistine) is anti-vertigo medication predominantly used to treat balance issues, vertigo, and tinnitus. Less commonly patients buy Serc to help with weight loss, as the medication makes fatty foods unappealing.

This product has not been studied in children and should not be given to patients under age 18 without explicit doctor approval.

Serc is not marketed in the United States, though the medication is popular in the UK, Australia, India, and other locations. Depending on location patients may buy Serc by another name; in India, for example, it is sold as Zevert. Name can also vary according to the medication's intended use, even if the active ingredient is the same.

Serc Uses

This medication can help end dizziness, vertigo, and tinnitus from nearly any cause. Patients regularly buy Serc to treat:

• Meniere's disease
• Migraine-associated vertigo
• Motion sickness
• Balance disorders
• Severe dizziness associated with panic attacks or anxiety
• Other causes

Treatment is similar in all cases:

• Start with 16 mg, taken 3 or 4 times per day.
• Each dose should be taken with food and a full glass of fluid, if possible.
• After several days of treatment, according to patient response, dosage may be reduced to 8 mg per dose or increased to 24 mg per dose.
• Do not take more than 96 mg per day without explicit doctor approval.

Because vertigo often produces nausea and other stomach upset, taking tablets with food and/or fluids is not always a realistic option at the start of treatment. Without food or fluids the medication may produce some mild stomach upset of its own, but this is usually indistinguishable from preexisting stomach upset.

Results vary to some extent, as is the case with nearly any medication; some users find Serc is tremendously beneficial, while others notice little difference. Improvements are usually noticeable within a few days of starting treatment, but may take a few weeks. If there is no difference noticed after a month of treatment the medication is unlikely to provide benefit in the future; alternative treatments should be considered.

Most patients that buy Serc do notice improvements, however; episodes are less frequent and less severe when they do occur. Serc is not a cure, unfortunately. In some situations the condition causing symptoms can be cured, such as with surgery, but in most cases it cannot be---it can only be treated.

Treatment should continue for as long as doctor recommends. The medication can be used long-term, for a year or more.

Serc for Weight Loss

Some patients buy Serc to help with losing weight, as it is believed that the medication makes fatty foods unappealing, so patients will eat less of them. A few studies from well-established organizations have shown that the medication can promote weight loss, or at least help prevent further weight gain. Effects are most pronounced in patients who are obese and under age 50.

This is an off-label use; patients might have a hard time finding a doctor who supports the using Serc in this application. The standard dosing for weight loss is similar for other uses:

• Start with 16 mg, taken 3 or 4 times per day.
• Each dose should be taken with food and a full glass of fluid.
• After several days of treatment dosage may be increased to 24 mg per dose.
• Do not take more than 96 mg per day without explicit doctor approval.

If side effects severe enough to be disruptive are experienced treatment should end.

Potential Complications

Serc is unlikely to produce serious side effects, and its milder side effects are very similar to the symptoms it treats; it's often difficult to tell if it's the medication or the condition causing it.

A small percentage of patients experience an allergic reaction, which can produce hives, swelling of the face and throat, and difficulty breathing. Emergency medical attention is warranted if an allergic reaction is suspected.

More common side effects include stomach upset, dizziness, and headache.

Patients who have a history of peptic ulcer or asthma should not buy Serc without discussing risks and warning signs with a doctor. Those who have a rare adrenal gland tumor, a condition called pheochromocytoma, should not buy Serc at all.

Medications that should be avoided while taking Serc include:

• MAOIs (monoamine oxidase inhibitors)
• Antihistamines
• Bronchodilators

Other medications may have mild interactions with Serc; double-check with a doctor or pharmacist before taking any, including over-the-counter varieties.
