Flunarizine (10mg) + Propranolol (40mg)
Active composition

Flunarizine acts as a calcium channel blocker, preventing vasodilation and reducing the frequency of migraine attacks.
Propranolol blocks beta-1 and beta-2 adrenergic receptors, resulting in decreased heart rate, myocardial contractility, and overall cardiac output.
Medical applications
Freehead Capsule SR is a combination medication containing Propranolol 40mg and Flunarizine 10mg, formulated to provide sustained relief from migraine headaches and related symptoms. Propranolol, a non-selective beta-blocker, works by reducing the heart rate and the force of contraction, thereby decreasing blood pressure and preventing the vascular changes that trigger migraines. Flunarizine, a calcium channel blocker, helps by stabilizing neuronal membranes and preventing abnormal calcium influx, which reduces the frequency and severity of migraine attacks. Together, these active ingredients offer a dual mechanism of action targeting both vascular and neurological factors involved in migraine pathophysiology. Freehead Capsule SR is typically prescribed for the prophylactic treatment of migraines, helping to reduce the number and intensity of episodes, improving patient quality of life. The sustained-release formulation ensures a steady release of medication, maintaining therapeutic levels over an extended period and minimizing dosing frequency. It is important to use this medication under medical supervision, as it may cause side effects such as fatigue, dizziness, or gastrointestinal discomfort, and is contraindicated in patients with asthma, certain heart conditions, or hypersensitivity to the components. Regular follow-up is recommended to monitor efficacy and tolerability.
