Nalzin Tablet 5 mg contains Flunarizine, a calcium channel blocker with antihistaminic properties, primarily used for the prevention of migraine and the management of vestibular disorders. It helps reduce the frequency and severity of migraine attacks and improves symptoms associated with balance disorders.

Flunarizine works by inhibiting the influx of calcium into cells, stabilizing neuronal activity, and improving blood flow in the brain. Its action helps prevent migraine episodes and relieves symptoms such as dizziness, vertigo, and nausea related to vestibular disturbances.

Mechanism of Action

Flunarizine blocks voltage-dependent calcium channels, reducing excessive calcium entry into cells. This stabilizes neuronal excitability and improves cerebral blood flow, helping prevent migraine attacks and reduce vestibular symptoms.
