Product Information

• Name: Frovatriptan succinate monohydrate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Frovatriptan succinate is a drug that belongs to the class of anti-migraine drugs. It is a selective serotonin receptor agonist and inhibits the release of neurotransmitters from nerve endings in the brain. Frovatriptan succinate has been shown to be effective for migraine, with significant relief starting about 30 minutes after taking the drug. It has been shown to be well tolerated and effective in patients with hepatic impairment, although it should not be used in patients with severe liver disease. Frovatriptan succinate is marketed as a controlled-release preparation that can be taken once per day. The drug binds to plasma proteins and has a short half-life (approximately 2 hours). It is metabolized by hepatic cytochrome P450 enzymes and excreted primarily through the kidneys. Frovatriptan succinate may also interact with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as aspirin or ibuprofen, which could increase the risk
