More information in Books or onNLM PubMed
Definition: A mixture of three different hydrogenated derivatives of ERGOTAMINE: DIHYDROERGOCORNINE; DIHYDROERGOCRISTINE; and DIHYDROERGOCRYPTINE. Dihydroergotoxine has been proposed to be a neuroprotective agent and a nootropic agent. The mechanism of its therapeutic actions is not clear, but it can act as an alpha-adrenergic antagonist and a dopamine agonist. The methanesulfonate salts of this mixture of alkaloids are called ERGOLOID MESYLATES.     
Pharmacological Action Adrenergic alpha-Antagonists; Dopamine Agonists
See Also Dihydroergocornine; Dihydroergocristine; Dihydroergocryptine
Examples Ergoloid Mesylates
Other names Ergot Alkaloids, Hydrogenated; Co-Dergocrine; Hydrogenated Ergot Alkaloids; Alkaloids, Hydrogenated Ergot; DihydroergotoxinDrugs* : HYDROGENATED ERGOT ALKALOIDS
