Dear Susan,
Tonopan has three main ingredients in it. It includes the following:
1.Caffeine: is added to improve absorption of the drug.
2.Dihydroergotamine mesilate:this has vasoconstrictor effect and partial agonist at serotonin receptors. Also, it has contraction effect on the uterus. so Don't take it if you are pregnant.
3.Propyphenazone:

its indication for Migraine and other vascular headache.FYI ( for your info) Migraine is described as a neurovascular headache.

I mention this because there is also another medicine has the same name Tonopan (ID) which is Diclofenac for pain not migraine ( it can be effective in the earlier stage of the pain) , so if you don't see these ingredients ask your Pharmacist.

Again, Migraine result from vascular changes which we believe that some vasoactive substances such as Serotonin, prostaglandins, catecholamines,,, etc liberated by some precipating factors include anxiety, emotional stress and sometimes during menstrual peroid. Or taking some oral contraceptives or estrogen.

If you have severe or uncontrolled hypertension ( high blood pressure) or some vascular disease, Don't take it. It is also contraindicated ( prohibited) in pregnancy.

If you feel numbness or tingling of your extremities generally indicates that you should stop this medication and inform your doctor.

Don't take this medication with other antimigraine or vasoconstrictive medications because it may cause some vascular side effects!

Good Luck!

As a birthmom, I found it interesting and somewhat comforting to see the questions that PAPs asked. People come here because the discussion is that of adoption, and there are people here with first hand experience. Sometimes its good to know that there are others out there that are going through, or have gone through, something similar. People come here looking for help, and most of the time we're rude and smart. I think we're all more mature than that. But frankly, you must be prepared for any answer you get.

Thyroid disease is one of the most common health problems we face today. From a practical standpoint, there are many ways to approach this issue. Learn here https://tr.im/oI77d

Hypothyroidism, or underactive thyroid, is a very common problem, and there are many reasons for this, including drinking chlorinated and fluoridated water, and eating brominated flour.

Chlorine, fluoride, and bromine are all in the same family as iodine, and can displace iodine in your thyroid gland.

Secondly, many people simply aren't getting enough iodine in their diet to begin with. The amount you get from iodized salt is just barely enough to prevent you from getting a goiter.
