Käyttöaiheet:

D.H.E. 45 (dihydroergotamine mesylate) Injection, USP is indicated for the acute treatment of migraine headaches with or without aura and the acute treatment of cluster headache episodes. There have been a few reports of serious adverse events associated with the coadministration of dihydroergotamine and potent CYP3A4 inhibitors, such as protease inhibitors and macrolide antibiotics, resulting in vasospasm that led to cerebral ischemia and/or ischemia of the extremities. The use of potent CYP3A4 inhibitors (i.e., ritonavir, nelfinavir, indinavir, erythromycin, clarithromycin, troleandomycin, ketoconazole, itraconazole) with dihydroergotamine is, therefore, contraindicated (see WARNINGS, CYP3A4 Inhibitors ). D.H.E. 45 (dihydroergotamine mesylate) Injection, USP should not be given to patients with ischemic heart disease (e.g., angina pectoris, history of myocardial infarction, or documented silent ischemia) or to patients who have clinical symptoms or findings consistent with coronary artery vasospasm includi

The therapeutic activity of dihydroergotamine in migraine is generally
attributed to the
agonist effect at 5-HT
receptors. Two current theories have been proposed to explain
the efficacy of 5-HT
receptor agonists in migraine. One theory suggests that
activation of 5-HT
receptors located on intracranial blood vessels, including those on
arteriovenous anastomoses, leads to vasoconstriction, which correlates
with the relief of
migraine headache. The alternative hypothesis suggests that activation
of 5-HT
receptors on sensory nerve endings of the trigeminal system results in
the inhibition of
pro-inflammatory neuropeptide release.
In addition, dihydroergotamine possess
