Imigran 100mg 2 Tabs 

Imigran / Imitrex Recovery Tablets contain the active ingredient Sumatriptan which is used to treat migraine headache. 

Migraine symptoms may be caused by the temporary widening of blood vessels in the head. 

Imigran / Imitrex is believed to reduce the widening of these blood vessels. 

This in turn helps to take away the headache and relieve other symptoms of a migraine attack, such as feeling or being sick (nausea or vomiting) and sensitivity to light and sound.

Imigran / Imitrex (generic name: Sumatriptan; brand name: Imigran) belongs to a group of medicines called serotonin agonists.

Imigran / Imitrex is used to relieve migraine headache, with or without what is known as 'aura' (eg seeing dots or flickering lights, weakness or numbness of limbs). 

Imigran / Imitrex also relieves other symptoms of a migraine attack like nausea, vomiting or sensitivity to light and sound.

It is thought that migraine headache is due to widening of certain blood vessels in the head. Imigran / Imitrex works by making those vessels normal again and ease the symptoms of migraine.

Imigran / Imitrex is not addictive.
