About Triptamin PR 10mg/40mg Tablet

AMITRIPTYLINE+PROPRANOLOL belongs to a group of medicines called tricyclic anti-depressants used to prevent migraine attacks with co-morbid conditions like insomnia, neuralgic pain, hypertension, and anxiety. A migraine is usually a moderate or severe headache felt as a throbbing pain on one side of the head.

AMITRIPTYLINE+PROPRANOLOL is a combination of two medicines, namely, amitriptyline and propranolol. Amitriptyline inhibits the membrane pump mechanism responsible for the uptake of serotonin in serotonergic neurons, thereby it increases serotonin levels, and decreasing electrical activity in the brain. Amitriptyline can also change the way that your nerves receive pain signals, so the pain goes away. Propranolol is a beta-blocker. It also widens the blood vessels in the body for better blood flow. Thereby, it helps to relieve your symptoms of pain or migraine.
