ফার্মাকোলজি

Almotriptan is a selective, potent agonist of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine 1B/1D) receptors. By binding to these receptor sites on the meningeal arteries, it blocks the release of vasoactive peptides and prompts the arteries to constrict. Its action on arteries supplying the brain is limited, and it has little effect on blood vessels in the heart and lungs.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Pregnancy Category C. It is not known whether almotriptan passes into human breast milk.
