Imigran

Imigran (Sumatriptan Succinate) is a medication used for the treatment of migraine attacks in adults. It also relieves the nausea and other symptoms, such as sensitivity to light, that often accompany migraines.

Imigran (Sumatriptan Succinate) should be taken at the onset of a migraine attack. However, if this cannot be done, it is usually effective at any time - even if you take it when your migraine is at its worst.

The most frequently seen side effects of Imigran (Sumatriptan Succinate) are tingling and nasal discomfort.

You should not take Imigran (Sumatriptan Succinate) if you have certain types of heart disease, a history of stroke or Transient lschemic Attacks (TIAs), peripheral vascular disease, Raynaud`s syndrome, or blood pressure that is uncontrolled.

Very rarely, certain people, even some without heart disease, have had serious heart-related problems when taking this medicine. Therefore, if you have risk factors for heart disease, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, or are a smoker, you need to be evaluated by your physician before taking this medicine.

If you are currently taking other medications, particularly MAO inhibitors and ergotamines, or if you are pregnant, nursing, or thinking of becoming pregnant, you should talk to your physician.
