    Frova Indication

    Pour le traitement aigu des crises de migraine avec ou sans aura chez les adultes.

    Frova Pharmacologie

    Le frovatriptan est un agoniste de la deuxième génération triptan récepteur 5-HT qui se lie avec une haute affinité pour la 5-HT 1B et 5-HT1D récepteurs. Le frovatriptan n'a pas d'effets significatifs sur l'activité de canal GABAA médiation et n'a pas d'affinité significative pour les sites de liaison des benzodiazépines. Le frovatriptan est censé agir sur extracérébrales, artères intracrâniennes et d'inhiber la dilatation excessive de ces navires dans la migraine. La recherche a démontré que la migraine peut être causée par le gonflement des vaisseaux sanguins du cerveau. Le frovatriptan soulage la douleur associée à la migraine par le rétrécissement de ces vaisseaux sanguins. Le frovatriptan n'a l'un des plus élevés des affinités pour la 5-HT 1B des agonistes triptan de seconde génération.

    Frova Absorption

    Le frovatriptan est rapidement absorbé par le duodénum, mais a une faible biodisponibilité orale.

    Frova Toxicite

    Il n'y a aucune expérience directe de tous les patients prenant une surdose de frovatriptan. La dose unique maximale de frovatriptan administrée aux patients masculins et féminins avec la migraine était de 40 mg (16 fois la clinique dose) et la dose maximale unique donné à des sujets sains de sexe masculin était de 100 mg (40 fois la dose clinique) sans effets indésirables significatifs.

    What is a migraine and how does it differ from other headaches?

    Migraine is an intense, throbbing headache that often affects one side of the head. It often includes nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound. The pain and symptoms from a migraine headache may be worse than the pain and symptoms of a common headache. Migraine headaches usually last for hours or longer.

    Some people have problems with vision (an aura) before they get a migraine headache. These include flashing lights, wavy lines, and dark spots.

    Only your doctor can determine that your headache is a migraine headache, so it is important that you discuss all of your symptoms with your doctor.
