Dihydroergocristine is an ergot alkaloid that has an partial agonist activity on dopaminergic and alpha-adrenergic receptors and antagonist activity on serotonin receptors. The drug was approved by FDA in combination with other alkaloids (dihydroergocornine, dihydro-alpha-ergocryptine and dihydro-beta-ergocryptine mesylate salts) under the name Hydergine for the treatment of dimentia and cerebrovascular insufficiency.

Sample Use Guides
The recommended dosage (in form of hydergine tablets containing dihydroergocornine, dihydroergocristine, dihydro-alpha-ergocryptine and dihydro-beta-ergocryptine mesylate salts in an approximate weight ratio of 1:1:1) in the US is 1 mg three times daily. In Europe and Japan, up to 12 mg of hydergine daily have been used without serious adverse effects.
Route of Administration:
Oral
C-1300 neuroblastoma cells were incubated with dihydroergocristine at concentration of 2 uM. In another experiment dihydroergocristine was added to the perfusion medium of the isolated rat brain in a concentration of 5 uM. In both experiments the drug caused changes in the concentrations of the high-energy phosphates.
