How Cinnarizine 25mg Works
Cinnarizine works by blocking histamine and calcium channels in the body. Its antihistamine action helps reduce nausea, vomiting, and dizziness associated with motion sickness. The calcium channel-blocking activity helps improve blood flow in the inner ear, which stabilizes sensory nerve function and helps control disturbances in balance and hearing.
