"A 39-year-old woman suffering from migraine took two suppositories of an ergotamine-containing proprietary drug (Cafergot, containing 2 mg ergotamine tartrate) for the first time again after an abstinence of two years."5.28[Extremity-threatening ischemia in ergotism. Successful treatment with the intra-arterial administration of nifedipine]. ( Brandt, J; Ernst, R; Mumme, A; Schäfer, K; Zumtobel, V, 1991)
"Subclinical ergotism most probably precedes for weeks the onset of severe vasospasm, which calls for close monitoring of patients taking ergot's derivatives."1.28Severe iatrogenic ergotism: incidence and clinical importance. ( Bongard, O; Bounameaux, H, 1991)

"Ergotism is an uncommon drug reaction that may lead to severe ischemic vasoconstriction, which is usually unilateral and more commonly involves the lower extremities."1.27Brachial artery stenosis secondary to ergotism and responsive to nifedipine.
