Mosegor Syrup 60ml

Requires Prescription:
Yes
Generics (Active Ingredient):
 Pizotifen
Used For:
 Prevention of migraine-type headaches, including:
o Cluster headaches
o Common migraine
o Classical migraine
How It Works:
Pizotifen is a tricyclic compound with antiserotonin, antitryptaminic, and antihistaminic effects,
along with weak anticholinergic and sedative properties.
It helps prevent migraines by:
 Modifying the humoral mechanisms involved in headache
 Inhibiting the permeability effects of serotonin and histamine on cranial vessels, reducing
plasma leakage and maintaining pain threshold
 Preventing loss of vascular tone by inhibiting platelet serotonin reuptake, thus reducing
passive distension of extracranial arteries
