Tigover Tablet 5 mg contains Flunarizine, a calcium channel blocker used to prevent and manage migraine headaches and certain vestibular (inner ear) disorders. It works by inhibiting the excessive influx of calcium ions into brain cells, which helps stabilize blood vessels and reduce nerve excitability. This action can prevent the onset of migraines and alleviate symptoms of dizziness and vertigo.

Tigover is particularly effective in reducing the frequency, duration, and intensity of migraine attacks. It is also prescribed for patients experiencing balance disorders, such as Meniere’s disease, by improving blood flow in the brain and inner ear and reducing abnormal nerve activity.

Key Benefits

• Migraine Prevention: Helps reduce the frequency and severity of migraine attacks.

• Relieves Dizziness and Vertigo: Effective for managing balance disorders and vertigo associated with inner ear dysfunction.

• Neuroprotective Effects: Stabilizes nerve cells by regulating calcium ion movement in the brain.

• Improves Quality of Life: Reduces the impact of migraines and vestibular disorders on daily activities.

Mechanism of Action

Flunarizine acts as a selective calcium channel blocker. By preventing excessive calcium entry into nerve cells, it reduces neuronal hyperexcitability and abnormal vascular constriction associated with migraine pathophysiology. In the inner ear, it helps improve blood flow, stabilizes nerve signaling, and alleviates vertigo symptoms.
