Description Brand name: Naratrex Active substance: Naratriptan Packaging: blister 10 x 2.5mg tablet Shipped from: India
Naratriptan (trade names include Amerge and Naramig) is used for the treatment of migraine headaches. Naratriptan is available in 2.5 mg tablets. It is a selective 5-hydroxytryptamine1 receptor subtype agonist.
It is thought that the widening of blood vessels in the brain causes the pain associated with migraine. The blood vessels widen on release of a chemical called serotonin. Naratriptan works by binding to receptors in the brain to prevent serotonin from binding. This causes the blood vessels to narrow and relieves the pain felt during a migraine.
Naratriptan is used for the treatment of the acute migraine attacks and the symptoms of migraine, including severe, throbbing headaches that sometimes are accompanied by nausea and sensitivity to sound or light.
- One tablet should be taken at the onset of a migraine attack. If your migraine is not eased after this first dose, do not take a second dose for the same attack. If your migraine goes away but then returns, you may take a second tablet at least four hours after the initial dose. No more than two tablets should be taken in 24 hours. - Naratriptan, along with the symptoms of migraine, can cause drowsiness. Make sure you know how you react to this medicine before driving, operating machinery or doing any other jobs which could be dangerous if you were not fully alert. Avoid alcohol as this will increase any feelings of drowsiness. - Important: You may also experience sensations of tingling, heat, pain, heaviness, pressure or tightness in any part of the body, including the throat and chest. These sensations may be strong but usually do not last long. If they continue or become too intense, stop taking Naratriptan and contact your doctor as soon as possible.
