Serc (betahistine) is a medication used to treat vertigo associated with Ménière's disease. Ménière's disease is a disorder of the inner ear that can cause episodes of dizziness, ringing in the ears (tinnitus), hearing loss, and a feeling of fullness or pressure in the ear.

It is also used to alleviate symptoms of vertigo, tinnitus (ringing in the ears), and hearing loss associated with inner ear disorders. Serc works by improving blood flow in the inner ear, which helps to reduce the severity and frequency of these symptoms.
