CompositionBetacap Plus 5 Capsule is used to prevent migraine attacks. It combines propranolol, a beta-blocker, with flunarizine, a calcium channel blocker, and helps reduce how often migraines occur and how severe they are, improving quality of life.
Propranolol helps stabilise blood vessel tone and nerve activity linked to migraine, while flunarizine stabilises blood vessels in the brain and reduces the abnormal nerve activity thought to trigger attacks, together reducing the frequency and intensity of migraines with regular use.
Take this capsule once daily, exactly as your doctor prescribes, and continue even if you do not notice an immediate benefit, since preventive effects build up over several weeks.
Do not stop this medicine suddenly, as this can affect your heart rate and blood pressure due to the propranolol component. Tell your doctor if you have asthma, a very slow heart rate, or a history of depression or Parkinson's disease, as this combination needs caution in these conditions.
