In Sydolil, two different vasoconstrictors are combined into one. It reduces pain by restricting the brain's blood arteries. This medication is recommended for curing migraines, hypertension, headaches. It must be noted that the drug's main effect – vasoconstriction - is the result of ergotamine. Caffeine enhances this component.As a stimulant for the CNS, caffeine also affects the bloodstream, resulting in lower peripheral vascular resistance without altering heart rate. Aspirin is the medicine of choice to treat moderate to severe pain, and it works by inhibiting prostaglandin production both centrally and peripherally. When other medications are ineffective Sydolil is the solution.

Valium Diazepam 10 mg
What is Valium?
Diazepam is a psychotropic drug of the benzodiazepine class with pronounced sedative, anti-anxiety, anticonvulsant, and muscle relaxant effects. The drug also has a hypnotic effect.
The mechanism of action of Valium is related to GABA, which is an inhibitory mediator in the CNS. GABAergic neurons inhibit the activity of other types of neurons. The drug reduces the activity of the GABA transaminase enzyme by increasing the content of GABA in the brain. Inhibition of noradrenergic and dopaminergic neurons is due to the sedative and hypnotic effects of Valium and other benzodiazepines. Anticonvulsant and muscle relaxant effects are due to inhibition of the corresponding neurons of cortical centers and the spinal cord. Inhibition of excitation processes in the reticular ladder system leads to the development of an anxiolytic effect.Indications for the use of Valium
The drug is prescribed in the following cases:
-
Neurotic disorders, anxiety, which is accompanied by panic attacks
-
For relief of nervous agitation associated with fear and anxiety
-
For epileptic seizures as well as convulsive states of various etiologies

Abrupt termination of taking Valium pills can provoke the occurrence of the ricochet phenomenon, manifested by an aggravation of the condition followed by a rapid reduction of symptoms (change in mood, anxiety or sleep disturbance, restlessness). To prevent ricochet or withdrawal symptoms, a gradual reduction in the dose is recommended.
