SERC
® 8MG TABLETS
(betahistine dihydrochloride)
_ _
Serc contains betahistine. This medicine is
called a histamine analogue. It is used to treat:

dizziness (vertigo)

ringing in the ears (tinnitus)

hearing loss suffered by people with
Ménière’s disease
This medicine works by improving blood flow in
the inner ear. This lowers the build up of
pressure.
DO NOT TAKE SERC IF:

You are allergic to any of the ingredients in
the tablets (see section 6 for further details).

You have high blood pressure due to an
adrenal tumour (phaeochromocytoma).
If any of the above applies to you, do not take
this medicine and talk to your doctor.
TAKE SPECIAL CARE AND TELL YOUR DOCTOR IF:

you have a stomach ulcer

you have asthma

you are pregnant or planning to become
pregnant

you are breast-feeding
If any of the above applies to you, talk to your
doctor before taking this medicine.
Your doctor will tell you whether it is safe for you
to start taking this medicine.
Your doctor may also want to monitor your
asthma while you take Serc.
TAKING OTHER MEDICINES
Please tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are
taking or have taken any other medicines,
including medicines obtained without a
prescription. This includes herbal medicines.
In particular, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you
are taking any of the following medicines:

Anti-histamines - these may (in theory) lower
the effect of Serc. Also, Serc may lower the
effect of anti-histamines.

Monoamine-oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) -
used to treat depression or Parkinson's
disease. These may increase the exposure of
Serc.
TAKING SERC WITH FOOD AND DRINK
You can take Serc with or without food.
PREGNANCY AND BREAST-FEEDING
Do not take Serc if you are pregnant unless your
doctor has decided that it is absolutely
necessary. Ask your doctor for advice.
