1. What is Cinnarizinum Hasco and what is it used for
Cinnarizine counteracts the contraction of vascular smooth muscle caused by the action of many substances (including adrenaline, noradrenaline, serotonin, dopamine) through a common mechanism involving a decrease in the permeability of the smooth muscle cell membrane to calcium and thereby inhibiting its entry into the cells. This results in the dilation of cerebral and peripheral blood vessels, improving circulation and tissue oxygenation.
Cinnarizine reduces the stimulation of the vestibular system. It has antiemetic and slightly sedative effects.
Cinnarizine is a histamine H1 receptor antagonist and has antiallergic properties.
Indications for use:
- treatment of symptoms of vestibular disorders and Meniere's disease, such as dizziness, nausea, vomiting;
- prevention of motion sickness;
- treatment of symptoms of cerebral and peripheral circulatory disorders (e.g., dizziness, tinnitus, headaches) and peripheral (e.g., intermittent claudication, Raynaud's disease).
2. Important information before taking Cinnarizinum Hasco
When not to take Cinnarizinum Hasco:
- if you are allergic to cinnarizine or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).

Cinnarizine enhances the sedative effect of medicines that depress the central nervous system, such as tricyclic antidepressants, anxiolytics, hypnotics, and opioid analgesics.
Antihistamines may inhibit the skin reaction to allergens caused by histamine, so cinnarizine should be discontinued a few days before skin tests are performed.
