Hi,

Ergotamine is better to avoid in cyclic vomiting syndrome in patients with ischemic heart disease or atherosclerosis or history of ischemic stroke patients.

Using tryptanes is useful for cyclic vomiting syndrome. they may also have a few side effects like dizziness, fatigue, headache other than a migraine, tingling of the skin, dry mouth, flushing (hot flashes), feeling hot or cold, chest pain etc.

So take care while taking treatment, please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
