Synonyms
Definitions

The succinate salt form of frovatriptan, a synthetic triptan with serotonin (5-HT) receptor agonist activity. Frovatriptan succinate binds selectively and with high affinity to 5-HT 1B and presynaptic 5-HT 1D receptors in the extracerebral and intracranial arteries. This leads to an inhibition of serotonin activity and results in vasoconstriction of the painfully dilated blood vessels during migraine attack. Frovatriptan succinate is indicated for the acute treatment of migraine. (NCI05)
