Cafergot tablets are a medication used to treat migraines and certain types of headaches.
Each tablet contains a combination of two active ingredients: ergotamine and caffeine. Ergotamine works by narrowing the blood vessels in the brain, which helps to alleviate migraine symptoms such as throbbing pain and sensitivity to light and sound. Caffeine acts as a stimulant and enhances the effectiveness of ergotamine.
Cafergot tablets are typically taken at the onset of a migraine attack for best results. It?s essential to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider to avoid potential side effects such as nausea, vomiting, or worsening headache.
Cafergot should not be used by individuals with certain medical conditions such as heart disease or hypertension without consulting a healthcare professional.
