Active composition
Flunarizine acts as a calcium channel blocker, preventing vasodilation and reducing the frequency of migraine attacks.
Medical applications
Flunarex 10mg Tablet contains Flunarizine, a calcium channel blocker primarily used to prevent migraine headaches and manage vertigo associated with vestibular disorders. Each tablet delivers 10mg of Flunarizine, which works by inhibiting the influx of calcium ions into vascular smooth muscle and neurons, thereby stabilizing blood vessel tone and reducing neuronal excitability.
This action helps to prevent the onset of migraine attacks and alleviate symptoms such as dizziness and imbalance. Flunarex is typically prescribed for patients experiencing frequent migraines or chronic vertigo and may also be used as adjunct therapy in certain neurological conditions. The medication is usually taken once daily, preferably at bedtime, to minimize side effects like drowsiness or fatigue.
Common adverse effects include weight gain, sedation, and gastrointestinal disturbances, though these are generally mild and transient. Flunarex should be used cautiously in patients with depression, liver impairment, or Parkinson’s disease, and it is contraindicated during pregnancy and lactation. Regular monitoring by a healthcare professional is recommended to assess therapeutic response and adjust dosage if necessary.
Overall, Flunarex 10mg Tablet offers an effective option for migraine prophylaxis and vertigo management, improving patients’ quality of life.
