Previously, migraine pain was thought to result primarily from the dilation of cerebral blood vessels. However, the neurogenic theory of migraine suggests that abnormal activation of trigeminal nerve pathways is the main cause of migraine pain, while vasodilation is a secondary effect.
Although the exact mechanism of action of Lasmiditan is not fully understood, it is believed to work by selectively activating 5-HT (serotonin) receptors located in both the central and peripheral nervous system, particularly on trigeminal neurons. Activation of these receptors leads to hyperpolarization of nerve terminals and inhibition of trigeminal nerve firing, thereby reducing migraine pain.
Lasmiditan has minimal affinity for other serotonin receptor subtypes and does not significantly interact with adrenergic or dopaminergic receptors.
Midita is indicated for the acute treatment of migraine attacks with or without aura in adults.
It is not intended for the prevention of migraine.
