Treatment of Meniere's disease
Most side effects of Vertistar-48 SR are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

Vertistar 48 SR Tablet is a histamine analog. It works by improving the blood flow in the inner ear which reduces the pressure of excess fluid there. Excess fluid can send signals to the brain causing nausea, dizziness or spinning sensations (symptoms of Ménière's disease). Vertistar 48 SR Tablet additionally dampens down the nerve signals sent from the inner ear to the brain relieving the symptoms of Ménière's disease.
Do not stop this medicine suddenly without asking your doctor. This medicine causes drowsiness. Do not drive or operate machinery until you know how it affects you. Report any change in mood, sleep or behaviour.
If you miss a dose of Vertistar 48 SR Tablet, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.
An overdose of this medicine can cause deep drowsiness, confusion and fits. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
Alcohol and other sedating medicines add to the drowsiness.
Store below 30°C in the original pack, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of the reach of children.
