Medicine Description cerebal-forte 75mg
Cerebal forte 75 mg tablets is a medication that combines cinnarizine and dimenhydrinate, both of which work synergistically to prevent and alleviate symptoms related to inner ear disorders and motion sickness. Cinnarizine acts as a calcium channel blocker, which helps to reduce vasospasm and improve blood flow to the inner ear, thus addressing issues like dizziness and tinnitus. On the other hand, dimenhydrinate is an antihistamine that reduces the effects of natural chemical histamine in the body, effectively suppressing nausea and vomiting by acting on the vomiting center in the brain. Together, these components help in managing vertigo and motion sickness by stabilizing the inner ear function and enhancing equilibrium.
