Frequently asked questions

What is Migräne‑Kranit used for?+
Migräne‑Kranit contains phenazone, an analgesic indicated for the symptomatic relief of migraine, tension‑type headache and other mild to moderate pain conditions such as dental or musculoskeletal discomfort.
How does phenazone work?+
Phenazone inhibits cyclooxygenase enzymes COX‑1 and COX‑2, reducing the production of prostaglandins that mediate inflammation, pain and fever. Lower prostaglandin levels diminish peripheral sensitisation and central perception of pain.
