Description
Indications
Zolmitriptan is employed for the management of migraine headaches. It functions to alleviate the symptoms associated with migraines, such as head pain, discomfort, and other migraine-related manifestations like nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound. Swift administration of this medication aids in a faster return to your regular activities and may potentially reduce your reliance on other pain-relief medications. Zolmitriptan is classified under the group of drugs known as triptans. It operates by influencing a specific natural substance, serotonin, which is responsible for constricting blood vessels in the brain.
Uses and Dosage
To use this medication effectively, follow your doctor’s instructions and administer it at the initial signs of a migraine. Typically, you’ll apply one spray into one nostril, taking care to avoid contact with your eyes.
Before using the medication, gently blow your nose, remove the protective cap, and then obstruct one nostril by firmly pressing on either side of your nose. Insert the tip of the spray device into the unobstructed nostril, inhaling gently as you press the plunger. Tilt your head slightly back, withdraw the tip from your nose, and breathe gently through your mouth for 5 to 10 seconds. You may experience moisture inside your nose and a faint taste, which is a normal reaction.
If your symptoms do not improve, consult your doctor before using more doses of this medication. In case of partial relief or if your headache reoccurs, you can administer another dose at least two hours after the initial one. However, do not exceed a total of 10 milligrams within a 24-hour period.
The appropriate dosage is determined by your medical condition, response to treatment, and any other medications you may be taking.
If you are at a higher risk for heart problems, your doctor may conduct a heart examination before commencing your zolmitriptan treatment. Your doctor might also instruct you to take your initial dose of this medication at their office or clinic to monitor for potential serious side effects, such as chest pain.
Should you find yourself using medications for migraine attacks on 10 or more days per month, it’s possible that these drugs could exacerbate your headaches, leading to medication overuse headaches. Adhere to the prescribed frequency and duration of use, and promptly inform your doctor if you require this medication more frequently, if it becomes less effective, or if your headaches worsen.

Share your medical history with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this medication, particularly if you have a history of conditions such as blood circulation problems, specific types of headaches, heart issues, liver disease, seizures, or a stroke or “mini-stroke” (transient ischemic attack).
