Sumatriptan FAQs
What is sumatriptan?
Sumatriptan is a 5-HT1 agonists. They cause the blood vessels around the brain to narrow (contract). This reverses the widening of blood vessels that’s believed to be part of the migraine process
How do I use sumatriptan?
Sumatriptan should be taken as early as possible after the onset of migraine attack but it is equally effective at whatever stage of the attack it is administered. It should not be taken before a headache occurs. The recommended dose of oral Sumatriptan is a 50mg tablet.
If you have responded to the first dose but the symptoms recur a second dose may be given provided that there is a minimum interval of two hours between the two doses. If 50mg gives some relief but not enough you may purchase a 100mg strength providing you tolerate the dose.
What are the common side effects?
You may not experience any side effect at all however the most common side effects reported include a warm-hot sensation, tightness, tingling, flushing, drowsiness, and feelings of heaviness or pressure in areas such as the face, arms, legs and occasionally the chest. The way side-effects affect different people can vary between the different triptans. So, if one causes unpleasant side-effects, a switch to a different one may be fine.
