(1)ХХХХХХХ.
Ergotamine tartrate1 mg
Caffeine ........ 100 mg
(2)XXXXXXX. Ergotamine is an alpha adrenergic blocking agent with a direct
stimulating effect on the smooth muscle of peripheral and cranial blood vessels
and produces depression of central vasomotor canters.
Caffeine, also a cranial vasoconstrictor, is added to further enhance the
vasoconstrictive effect.
Many migraine patients experience nausea and vomiting during attacks making it
impossible for them to retain any oral medication. In such cases, therefore, the
only practical means of medications is through the rectal route, where medication
may reach the cranial vessels directly.
(3)XXXXXXX. Indicated as therapy to prevent vascular headache.
(4)XXXXXXX. Peripheral vascular disease, coronary heart disease, hypertension,
impaired renal function, sepsis and pregnancy. Hypersensitivity to any of the
components.
(5)XXXXXXX. Although signs and symptoms of ergotism rarely develop even
after long term intermittent use of the orally or rectally administered drug, care
should be exercised to remain within the limits of the recommended dosage.
(6)XXXXXXX. Vasoconstrictive complications, at time of a serious nature,
may occur. These include pulselessness, weakness, muscle pain and precordial
distress and pain. Other adverse effects include transient tachycardia or
bradycardia, nausea, vomiting, localized edema and itching.
(7)XXXXXXX. Procedure: for the best results, dosage should start at the first
sign of an attack; 2 tablets at start of attack, 1 additional tablet every 1/2 hour
(maximum 6 tablets per attack).
