Pharmacology

Cinnarizine provides faster relief of various symptoms of cerebral and peripheral circulation disorders and prevents attacks of vascular headache such as migraine.

Metabolism

Dimenhydrinate acts as antihistamine with anti-cholinergic properties. The substance exhibits the anti-emetic & anti vertigo effects through influencing the chemoreceptor trigger zone.
