Dolortriptan ®- especially with diagnosed migraines
throbbing, pulsating headaches, often accompanied by complaints such as nausea, noise and light sensitivity - migraine attacks can put you out of action. Some migraine sufferers also suffer from a so-called aura phase before the actual migraine headache, which can lead to deficits such as visual or sensory disturbances. With or without an aura phase, migraine attacks are usually so impairing that normal everyday life can no longer be thought of.
This is where Dolortriptan ® helps . Thanks to the active ingredient Almotriptan, Dolortriptan ® quickly and permanently relieves migraine headaches and accompanying symptoms.
How does Dolortriptan ® workwith migraines?
The messenger substance serotonin, among other things, plays an important role in a migraine attack. Serotonin is an endogenous messenger substance that regulates, for example, the narrowing and expansion of blood vessels. During a migraine attack, there is an imbalance in the serotonin balance, which causes the meninges to widen. As a result, they can become permeable to tissue-hostile substances and small inflammations can develop. At the same time, nerve cells in the brain are strongly activated and deactivated again, which can lead to a disruption of the electrolyte concentration. Overall, this creates the migraine headache.
The one in Dolortriptan ®The active ingredient almotriptan containing tablets is similar to the messenger substances involved in the migraine process and helps regulate them. Almotriptan belongs to the group of triptans. These are special migraine agents that work specifically on the enlarged blood vessels. The therapeutic success is greatest if the tablet is taken at the beginning of a migraine attack. So Dolortriptan ® can relieve the migraine attack quickly and permanently.
