About Amlotan 6.25mg Tablet
Amlotan 6.25mg Tablet belongs to a class of drugs known as 'antimigraine' used to prevent migraine symptoms such as headache, nausea, and vomiting. Migraine is a neurological condition characterized by intense pulsating, throbbing, pounding, debilitating headache, which usually occurs on one side of the head; however, it can occur on both sides or shift. Hormonal changes, stress, bright lights, loud sounds, and certain foods and drinks can trigger migraine headaches.
Amlotan 6.25mg Tablet contains Zolmitriptan. It works by acting on the serotonin (5-HT) receptors located in the brain, thereby causing the narrowing of the brain's blood vessels, which affects the blood flow patterns associated with headaches. Thus, Amlotan 6.25mg Tablet helps effectively in treating symptoms of migraine-like headache, nausea and vomiting.
