Scientific Evidence

Sumatriptan, the active ingredient in Antimigren tablets, is a selective serotonin receptor agonist that works by narrowing blood vessels in the brain to relieve migraine headaches. Studies have shown that sumatriptan is effective in providing rapid relief from migraine symptoms, including pain, nausea, and sensitivity to light and sound.

Additional Information

It is important to note that Antimigren (sumatriptan) coated tablets are not intended for the prevention of migraines or for the treatment of hemiplegic or basilar migraines. If you have a history of cardiovascular disease, discuss with your healthcare provider before using this medication.

Clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy of sumatriptan in relieving migraine pain and associated symptoms. Patients treated with sumatriptan experienced significant relief compared to those on a placebo. However, like any medication, it may cause side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, or chest tightness. Consult your doctor if you experience any adverse reactions.
