Pharmacodynamics
Capadol contains 5 components that complement each other perfectly in the treatment of migraine attacks of various origins, which are accompanied by dizziness, vomiting, visual disturbances and nausea.
The effects of the Cyclamen elements, as well as Cimicifuga, are mainly developed in relation to hormonal manifestations (for example, during menstruation or menopause). At the same time, Cimicifuga affects headaches caused by changes in the cervical spine, as well as the arms.
The Gelsemium component is effective in migraine-like headaches associated with colds or flu. It also has a positive effect on symptoms arising from nervous disorders, such as anxiety before a public speech or exams.
Iris effectively copes with migraine, called "Sunday", which often occurs on weekends (during the relaxation stage) and is accompanied by severe gastrointestinal dysfunction.
The substance Sanguinaria has a medicinal effect on headaches related to the time of day and intolerance to noise or light.
Capadol has a regulatory effect on nerves and blood vessels, and in addition, it helps stabilize the autonomic nervous system.
Dosing and administration
Acute manifestations of migraine should be relieved by taking 5 drops of the drug every hour (maximum 6 times a day) until the patient's condition improves. Then the solution in the same dosage (5 drops) is used 3 times a day.
The medicine should be taken 30 minutes before eating (or half an hour after), holding the solution in the mouth for a while before swallowing.
