Ārstēšanas norādes:

Dihydroergotamine Mesylate Injection 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).   Dihydroergotamine Mesylate Injection 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 including Prinzmetal’s variant angi

ASSOCIATED
WITH THE CO-ADMINISTRATION OF DIHYDROERGOTAMINE WITH POTENT CYP3A4
INHIBITORS INCLUDING PROTEASE INHIBITORS AND MACROLIDE ANTIBIOTICS. BECAUSE CYP3A4 INHIBITION ELEVATES THE SERUM LEVELS OF

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
MECHANISM OF ACTION Dihydroergotamine binds with high affinity to 5-HT
and 5-HT
receptors. It also
binds with high affinity to serotonin 5-HT
, 5-HT
, and 5-HT
receptors,
noradrenaline α
, α
and α receptors, and dopamine D and D receptors.
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 sugg
