Sumatriptan is used to treat migraines. It helps to relieve headache, pain, and other migraine symptoms (including nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light/sound). Prompt treatment helps you return to your normal routine and may decrease your need for other pain medications. Sumatriptan belongs to a class of drugs known as triptans. It affects a certain natural substance (serotonin) that causes narrowing of blood vessels in the brain. It may also relieve pain by affecting certain nerves in the brain. Sumatriptan does not prevent future migraines or lessen how often you get migraine attacks.Zolmitriptan is used to treat migraines.

I usually only have to take a half of a pill and I feel a bit better within 30 mins to an hour. I have been multiple pills for migraines and this one has been the best.

I don't normally get migraine but one every couple of months. I used Sumatriptan and every time I take it about 1/2 hour after I take it I alway throw up and then pass out finally. When I wake there is no more headache. So it works but I alway throw up.

This treatment has been very effective for my son's migraines. It almost instantly gives him relief for his migraine headaches. Sometimes the side affects include, some minor aches here and there, and constant sneezing. Other than that it seems OK!

I have suffered migraine headaches since '84. I am on a regiment of preventive RX's but when a migraine strikes & OTC medication does not work, ZOMIG is the only thing that I have found effective to get rid of the pain. I have not experienced negative side effects, only relief. Usually a 2.5 dosage will take care of the headache, sometimes I have had to take one more dosage. Migraines are so debilitating, but with ZOMIG I have usually been able to take a tablet & continue whatever I am doing. I could be a spokesperson for this drug, I believe in it so much. If I did not have access to ZOMIG, I would have had many more trips to Urgent Care or the Emergency room because nothing else worked for me. Thank you ZOMIG!!
