Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Frova Work?

Frova works by agonizing the 5-HT-1B and 5-HT-1D serotonin receptors. This action leads to the constriction of dilated blood vessels in the brain, which helps to counteract the underlying mechanisms of a migraine. By activating these serotonin receptors, Frova also inhibits the release of pro-inflammatory neuropeptides, which contributes to its effectiveness in alleviating migraine symptoms.

Common Dosages

  • Oral tablets: 2.5 mg

Typical Dosing

The typical dosing for Frova is:

  • For Migraine Attacks: The usual dose is 2.5 mg taken orally, which can be repeated after 2 hours if needed, with a maximum of 7.5 mg per day.
