Methysergide Sansert

Methysergide (Sansert ) is believed to alter the ability of serotonin to cause inflammation, platelet aggregation (blood clotting), and dilation of blood vessels. However, methysergide has some undesirable side effects, such as motor incoordination and dizziness and can cause heart problems. Usually, the drug is intentionally discontinued for 4-6 weeks twice a year because of these problems. Thus, methysergide is used only in special cases. 

B. Specific drugs and antidotes. For suspected serotonin syndrome, anecdotal reports claim benefit from cyproheptadine (Periactin), 4 mg orally every hour for 3 doses, or methysergide (Sansert), 2 mg orally every 6 hours for 3 doses, presumably because of the serotonin antagonist effects of these drugs.
