Zolmitriptan is a generic tablet treatment for the symptoms of migraine - a moderate-to-severe headache that can be accompanied by nausea, as well as increased sensitivity to light and sound.
It belongs to a class of medicines called ‘triptans’, which are licensed specifically for treating migraine headaches, rather than tension headaches or any other pain. They should also only be taken when you start getting symptoms, rather than on a scheduled basis to try and prevent or reduce the number of migraines that you experience.
It’s not fully understood what causes migraine headaches, but it’s thought that your symptoms might be caused by a temporary widening of your brain’s blood vessels. Sometimes this can be caused by a trigger, such as stress, tiredness or certain foods and drinks. Some people also sometimes get a kind of ‘warning’ that they’re about to suffer a migraine, such as seeing small bright dots, flashes of light, or a tingling on their hands and face. This is called aura.
Zolmitriptan can treat migraines with and without aura by binding to your brain’s serotonin receptors; reducing the swelling of your blood vessels and blocking the transmission of pain signals.
There are two doses of Zolmitriptan: 2.5mg and 5mg. Our clinician will let you know which dose will be most suitable for you based on your health needs.
How we source info.
When we present you with stats, data, opinion or a consensus, we’ll tell you where this came from. And we’ll only present data as clinically reliable if it’s come from a reputable source, such as a state or government-funded health body, a peer-reviewed medical journal, or a recognised analytics or data body. Read more in our editorial policy.
You should always take Zolmitriptan exactly as prescribed by our clinician. To take Zolmitriptan, simply swallow one tablet whole, with or without food.
If your migraine symptoms aren’t improving, wait two hours before taking another tablet. Don’t take more than two doses in a day unless instructed otherwise by your clinician.
Zolmitriptan should get to work quickly. Many people who take Zolmitriptan experience significant symptom relief within an hour of taking it.
If your symptoms are still present after taking Zolmitriptan, you should wait at least two hours before taking another tablet. If you frequently notice that Zolmitriptan isn’t working to relieve your symptoms, speak with our clinician. You might need to try an alternative treatment.
Taking more than your prescribed dose of Zolmitriptan can be dangerous. If you’ve accidentally taken too much, seek medical advice straight away.
