Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
There are no documented drug interactions between sudafed and betahistine if these are co administered. The effect of betahistine may sometimes aggravate the symptoms of allergic rhinitis and nasal stuffiness.
You can combine the use of two drugs as advised by your physician.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
