Is migon steriod?
Asked by Male, 56 · 5 months ago
Migon (Flunarizine) is not a steroid. It is a calcium channel blocker used primarily to prevent migraine headaches and occasionally to treat balance disorders, such as vertigo. It works by blocking excess calcium from entering brain cells, which helps calm overactive nerve activity and stabilise blood flow. Unlike steroids, it does not influence hormones or inflammation.

Flunarizine, marketed as Migon 10mg, is not a steroid. It is a calcium channel blocker used primarily to prevent migraines and treat certain types of vertigo.
- Not a steroid: Flunarizine does not belong to the steroid class of drugs, which are hormones or synthetic substances related to hormones.
- Uses: It helps by relaxing blood vessels and improving blood flow in the brain, which can reduce migraine frequency.
- Side effects: Some common side effects include drowsiness, weight gain, or depression, but it does not have the hormonal effects associated with steroids.
If you have concerns about this medication or its effects, discussing them with your doctor is always a good idea for personalized advice and reassurance.
