Introduction About FLUGR

FLUGR
called calcium channel blockers. It is commonly used to reduce migraine attacks
and reduce their frequency and severity. In some cases, it may also be
prescribed to manage vertigo or balance disorders, as advised by a doctor.

Flunarizine works by regulating blood flow in the brain and stabilizing nerve
cell activity, which helps reduce the triggers that cause migraine attacks. It
is not intended to manage an acute migraine once it has started, but rather to
reduce how often and how severely migraines occur.

This medicine should be used with caution in people with a history of
depression, Parkinson’s disease, liver or kidney problems, or allergies to
Flunarizine. Inform your doctor before taking this medicine. It is not
recommended for during pregnancy and breastfeeding unless advised by a doctor.
It is also not recommended for children under 18 years unless prescribed by a
healthcare professional.

The most common side effects include drowsiness, fatigue, weight gain, mild
nausea, constipation, and insomnia. Consult your doctor if any of these side
effects persist or worsen. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience
severe depression, unusual muscle stiffness, allergic reactions, or persistent
fatigue affecting daily activities.
