Pharmacology
Methysergide interacts with serotonin (5-HT) receptors. Its therapeutic effect in migraine prophylaxis has been associated with its antagonism at the 5-HT2B receptor.[1] Furthermore, it is an antagonist at the 5-HT2C receptor and at the 5-HT1A receptor.[2][3] It is known to have partial agonist effects on some of the other 5-HT receptors as well.[4] Methysergide is metabolised into methylergometrine in humans, which is responsible for its psychedelic effects.
Uses
Methysergide is used to treat headaches such as migraine and other recurrent throbbing headaches.[5] Methysergide is one of the most effective[6] medications for the prevention of migraine, but not for the treatment of an acute attack.
It is also used in carcinoid syndrome to treat severe diarrhea.[5]
Side effects
It has a known side effect, retroperitoneal fibrosis,[7] which is severe, although uncommon. Other severe but uncommon side effects include pleural fibrosis, and subendocardial fibrosis.
In addition, there is an increased risk of left-sided cardiac valve dysfunction.[6][8]
History
Methysergide was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1962.
Novartis withdrew it from the U.S. market after taking over Sandoz, but currently lists it as a product.
Related compounds
Its molecular structure is closely related to that of LSD.
Like LSD, methysergide also produces psychedelic and hallucinogenic effects.[9]
About 4 mg is equal to 25mcg of LSD.[9]
Sandoz does not currently list this on their product guide.See also
