Cinnarizine
Cinnarizine is an antihistamine with additional calcium channel blockade, primarily used for the treatment of vestibular disorders and migraine prophylaxis. It acts by blocking H1 receptors and inhibits dopamine D2 receptors, which can cause side effects such as sedation and extrapyramidal symptoms. The substance affects the balance system and is commonly used for nausea and dizziness.
