Frequently Asked Questions

What is Imigran used for?

Imigran (sumatriptan) is used to treat acute migraine attacks, with or without aura. It helps relieve headache, nausea, and sensitivity to light and sound by narrowing blood vessels in the brain​.

How should I take Imigran?

Take Imigran as soon as a migraine begins. Swallow the tablet whole with water. If your symptoms return, you can take a second dose after two hours. Do not exceed more than 300 mg (six 50 mg tablets or three 100 mg tablets) in 24 hours.

What are the common side effects of Imigran?

Common side effects include nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, feeling of warmth, heaviness or tightness in the chest, throat, or other parts of the body, and temporary increase in blood pressure. These effects are usually mild and temporary.

Who should not use Imigran?

Imigran should not be used by individuals with high blood pressure, heart problems, or those who have had a stroke. It is also contraindicated for people taking MAOIs, SSRIs, SNRIs, or other triptans. Always consult your doctor before starting Imigran if you have any of these conditions​.

Can I use Imigran if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?

Consult your healthcare provider before using Imigran if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Limited data suggest there is no increased risk of birth defects, but safety during pregnancy and breastfeeding is not fully established.

How quickly does Imigran work?

Imigran tablets usually start to work within 30 to 60 minutes. If the first tablet does not relieve your migraine, do not take another one for the same attack​.

Can I take Imigran with other medications?

Imigran can interact with several medications, including ergotamine, MAOIs, SSRIs, SNRIs, and other triptans. Always inform your doctor about any other medications you are taking to avoid potential interactions​.
