Frovatriptan, sold under the brand name Frova among others, is a triptan medication developed by Vernalis for the treatment of migraine headaches[1] and for short term prevention of menstrual migraine.[2][3] The product is licensed to Endo Pharmaceuticals in North America and Menarini in Europe.[4]

Medical uses

Frovatriptan is used in the treatment of migraine.

Available forms

It is available as 2.5 mg tablets.

Contraindications

Frovatriptan should not be given to patients with:

  • Ischemic heart disease
  • Cerebrovascular syndrome
  • Peripheral vascular disease
  • Uncontrolled hypertension
  • Hemiplegic or basilar migraine

Side effects

Rare, but serious cardiac events have been reported in patients with risk factors predictive of CAD. These include: coronary artery vasospasm, transient myocardial ischemia, myocardial infarction, ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation.

Frovatriptan is a serotonin receptor agonist, with high affinity for the serotonin 5-HT1B and 5-HT1D receptors and with weaker activity at the serotonin 5-HT1F receptor.[12] It has no significant effects on the GABAA mediated channel activity and benzodiazepine binding sites.Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Frovatriptan inhibits excessive dilation of arteries that supply blood to the head.Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Uniquely among most triptans, frovatriptan is also a relatively potent serotonin 5-HT7 receptor agonist.[12] It is inactive at the serotonin 5-HT2A and 5-HT2B receptors.[12]

Pharmacokinetics

Frovatriptan has a terminal elimination half-life of approximately 26 hours, making it the longest within its class.[16]

Chemistry

Frovatriptan's chemical structure is unusual among triptans, with other triptans being simple tryptamines or closely related compounds but frovatriptan instead being a tricyclic cyclized tryptamine and tetrahydrocarbazolamine derivative.[17] It can be thought of as a 5-substituted and side chain-cyclized derivative of N-methyltryptamine (NMT).[17]

The experimental log P of frovatriptan is 0.9 and its predicted log P is 1.2.[18]

History

Frovatriptan was first described in the scientific literature by 1997.[19][20][21] It was approved for medical use in the United States in 2001.[22]

Society and culture

Legal status

Frovatriptan is available only by prescription in the United States and Canada.[23]
