Naramig is a branded, symptom-relieving tablet for migraines. Migraines are moderate-to-severe headaches that are often felt in one side of the head. Typical symptoms can include a ‘throbbing’ pain in the head, increased sensitivity to light and sound, and nausea. Sometimes migraine sufferers get a kind of ‘warning’ that they’re about to suffer a migraine - this is called migraine with aura. Naramig can treat migraines both with and without aura.
Its active ingredient, naratriptan, belongs to a group of medications called triptans (also known as 5-HT1 receptor agonists). Triptans work specifically to treat the symptoms of migraines. They don’t work, and shouldn’t be taken, for regular tension headaches or preventing or reducing your migraines.
How does Naramig work?
It’s not fully known what causes migraines and their symptoms, but it’s thought that you’re more likely to get them if you have a family history of migraine, and that they’re triggered by specific things, such as stress, tiredness, coming on your period, or certain foods or drinks. Once triggered, temporary changes occur to your brain’s chemistry, which causes the blood vessels around your brain to widen.
Naratriptan, like other ‘triptans’, works by binding to the serotonin receptors in your brain. This allows it to contract your blood vessels and block the transmission of pain signals - helping to ease your symptoms.
What doses of Naramig are there?
Naramig is a single-dose treatment, and you shouldn’t take more than one tablet for the same migraine. As a result, you should let our clinician know if you find that Naramig isn’t working to treat your symptoms as you’d hoped. It might be the case that you need to try an alternative treatment.

How to take Naramig
You should take Naramig exactly as prescribed by our clinician. To take it, simply swallow one tablet whole, with water. Don’t take another one until at least four hours have passed, and don’t exceed two tablets in the same day.
How long does it take Naramig to work?
It can vary from person-to-person, but you should start to feel symptom relief from Naramig around one to three hours after taking it. This is a little slower than many other triptans, but that’s offset by the fact that it stays in your system for around six hours (longer than most other triptans), making you less likely to experience a secondary migraine later in the day.
What should I do if I make a mistake when taking Naramig?
Make sure you don’t take more than one tablet in a four hour period, and no more than two tablets per 24 hours. If you take more than this by accident, contact a clinician for guidance.

FAQ: Naramig
Have something specific you want to know? Search our info below, or ask our experts a question if you can’t find what you’re looking for.
How is Naramig different from other treatments for migraine?
Answer:
Naramig, as a ‘triptan’, will have the same method of action as other triptan migraine treatments - in that it treats your symptoms by reducing the widening of your brain’s blood vessels. But the different active ingredients in other triptans can differ in how well they work for you, as well as how long it takes for them to take effect and how long they stay in your system.
Aside from triptans, some people prefer to simply take analgesics (painkillers) or anti-emetics (anti-sickness medicines). You can also get combination treatments that include both a painkiller and an anti-sickness medicine (such as MigraMax). If you’re not sure what type of migraine treatment could be best for you, have a chat with our clinician. They should be able to point you in the right direction.
Is Naramig similar to any other treatments?
Answer:
There’s a generic equivalent of Naramig, which goes by the name of its active ingredient: Naratriptan. Both of these treatments contain the same active ingredient in the same dosage, which means that they’ll both work in largely the same way to treat your symptoms - they’ll just be produced by different labs and be branded differently. Because Naratriptan isn’t branded, it’s usually a bit cheaper.
Do I need a prescription for Naramig?
Answer:
Yes, you need a prescription for Naramig. This is because it’s not suitable for everyone, and it should only be used for migraine headaches. Because of this, a clinician will need to make sure that it’s safe and suitable for you before they can dispense it.
