Matibabu dalili:

Ergotamine tartrate and caffeine tablets are indicated as therapy to abort or prevent vascular headache; e.g., migraine, migraine variants or so-called “histaminic cephalalgia.” Coadministration of ergotamine with potent CYP 3A4 inhibitors (ritonavir, nelfinavir, indinavir, erythromycin, clarithromycin, and troleandomycin) has been associated with acute ergot toxicity (ergotism) characterized by vasospasm and ischemia of the extremities (see PRECAUTIONS: Drug Interactions ), with some cases resulting in amputation. There have been rare reports of cerebral ischemia in patients on protease inhibitor therapy when ergotamine tartrate and caffeine tablets was coadministered, at least one resulting in death. Because of the increased risk of ergotism and other serious vasospastic adverse events, ergotamine use is contraindicated with these drugs and other potent inhibitors of CYP 3A4 (e.g., ketoconazole, itraconazole) (see WARNINGS: CYP 3A4 Inhibitors ).

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Ergotamine is an alpha adrenergic blocking agent with a direct
stimulating effect on the smooth muscle
of peripheral and cranial blood vessels and produces depression of
central vasomotor centers. The
compound also has the properties of serotonin antagonism. In
comparison to hydrogenated ergotamine,
the adrenergic blocking actions are less pronounced and
vasoconstrictive actions are greater.
Caffeine, also a cranial vasoconstrictor, is added to further enhance
the vasoconstrictive effect without
the necessity of inc
