Description

Dihydro-alpha-ergocryptine is an ergot alkaloid that has an agonist activity on D2 dopaminergic receptors and a partial agonist activity on D1 receptors. It also demonstrated antagonistic activity towards alpha-adrenergic receptors. The drug was approved by FDA in combination with other alkaloids (dihydroergocornine, dihydroergocristine and dihydro-beta-ergocryptine mesylate salts) under the name Hydergine for the treatment of dimentia and cerebrovascular insufficiency.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
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
In Vitro Use Guide
Primary cultures of rat cerebellar granule cells were exposed to toxic concentrations (100 uM) of glutamate in Mg2+-free buffer. Repeated addition of dihydro-alpha-ergocryptine (100 nM-1 uM, once a day from the second day in culture, last addition 3 hr before the glutamate pulse) protected cerebellar granule cells against the toxic action of glutamate.
