    • Sterile neurogenic inflammation within cephalic tissue, involving vasodilation and plasma protein extravasation, has been proposed as a pathophysiological mechanism in acute migraine. The action of 5‐hydroxytryptamine (5‐HT1B/1D) agonists—so‐called triptans—on receptors located in meningeal arteries (5‐HT1B) and trigeminovascular fiber endings (5‐HT1D) has an inhibitory effect on this neurogenic inflammation. Recently, a series of second‐generation 5‐HT1B/1D agonists (almotriptan, eletriptan… CONTINUE READING
