Socwarl N
Socwarl N Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Food Interaction and all others data.
An ergot derivative that has been used as a cerebral vasodilator and in peripheral vascular disease. It has been suggested to ameliorate cognitive deficits in cerebrovascular disease.
Socwarl N is a potent vasodilator (improves brain blood flow). On the cerebral level it prompts a lowering of vascular resistance, an increase in arterial flow and stimulates the use of oxygen and glucose. Socwarl N also improves blood circulation in the lungs and limbs and has been shown to inhibit blood platelet aggregation.

Uses
Socwarl N is an ergot derivative use for the treatment of symptoms associated with cerebrovascular abnormalities.
For the treatment of senile dementia, migraines of vascular origin, transient ischemia, platelet hyper-aggregability, and macular degeneration.
Socwarl N is also used to associated treatment for these conditions: Stroke, Ischemic, Transient Ischemic Attack, Peripheral vasodilatation
How Socwarl N works
Socwarl N acts by inhibiting the postsynaptic alpha(1)-adrenoceptors on vascular smooth muscle. This inhibits the vasoconstrictor effect of circulating and locally released catecholamines (epinephrine and norepinephrine), resulting in peripheral vasodilation. Therefore the mechanism of Socwarl N is to increase vascular circulation in the brain, thereby enhancing the transmission of nerve signals across the nerve fibres, which secrete acetylcholine as a neural transmitter.
