Flunarizine belongs to the calcium channel blocker group of medicines which is used to prevent migraine attacks. It is also used to prevent and treat vertigo and other conditions of the inner ear and the brain. The main side effects of flunarizine are tiredness, drowsiness, weight gain and low mood. Possible weight gain is caused by an increase in appetite and can be avoided by your child following his or her usual diet without any increase in portion size.
