Get a Sumatriptan (Imitrex) prescription online

Most people feel relief within 2 to 4 hours of a tablet. In FDA trials, about 50% to 62% of people had mild or no headache 2 hours after a tablet, and up to 79% did by 4 hours. The injection works fastest: relief can begin as early as 10 minutes after a 6 mg dose.

Another triptan, such as rizatriptan, can treat an attack if sumatriptan doesn’t work for you or causes side effects. If you have frequent migraines, a doctor may also prescribe a preventive medicine, such as topiramate, erenumab (a monthly injection), amitriptyline, or metoprolol. Preventive medicines lower how often attacks happen, but they don’t stop an attack once it starts.

Don’t use sumatriptan for a headache that isn’t a migraine, or for a sudden, severe headache that feels different from your usual attacks, which needs emergency care. Sumatriptan tablets aren’t approved for cluster headache, although the injection is. Also avoid taking it, or any other migraine medicine, on 10 or more days a month, because frequent use can make headaches worse.

The usual dose is one 25 mg, 50 mg, or 100 mg tablet when a migraine starts, and you shouldn’t take more than 200 mg in 24 hours. A doctor will determine the right dose for you.

You should not take Imitrex if you have heart disease, a past heart attack, coronary artery spasm, a past stroke or TIA, hemiplegic or basilar migraine, uncontrolled high blood pressure, peripheral vascular disease, ischemic bowel disease, Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, or severe liver disease. It’s also unsafe within 24 hours of another triptan or an ergotamine medicine, or within 2 weeks of an MAO-A inhibitor.

The most common side effects are tingling, feeling warm or cold, tiredness, dizziness, and pain, pressure, or tightness in the chest, neck, throat, or jaw. Chest, throat, or jaw tightness after a dose is usually not caused by the heart, but tell your doctor if it happens. Rarely, sumatriptan can cause a heart attack, an irregular heartbeat, a stroke, a rise in blood pressure, seizures, or serotonin syndrome. Get emergency help if you have chest pain that doesn’t go away, shortness of breath, sudden weakness, trouble speaking, or a severe allergic reaction.

Taking more than prescribed raises the risk of side effects such as chest pain or tightness. If you’ve taken more than your doctor prescribed and feel unwell, call Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222 or go to the nearest emergency room.

Imitrex isn’t taken on a schedule, so there are no missed doses: you take it only when a migraine starts. If the first dose helped but the migraine comes back or hasn’t cleared, you can take a second dose at least 2 hours after the first. If the first dose didn’t help at all, don’t take a second one for that attack, and talk to your doctor.
