What is Zomig and how does it work?

Zomig is a treatment for migraines. The class of medications called triptans also known as serotonin 5-HT receptor agonists includes zolmitriptan, the active ingredient in Zomig. It works by constricting the temporarily swollen blood vessels in the head, which is thought to cause migraines. This results in relief from the headache part of a migraine attack.

When and how should I take Zomig?

Zomig is sold as conventional tablets, a nasal spray and dispersible tablets. Swallowing the tablet whole with water as soon as the migraine starts maximises its effect but taking it before the warning signs will not prevent an attack. The recommended dose for Zomig is 2.5mg, and food does not affect the activity of the medication. If your migraine returns, you can take another tablet but only after a minimum of 2 hours has passed since the first dose. Do not take more than 2 tablets per day.

Zomig nasal spray comes in a ready-to-use spray unit which should be administered as soon as your migraine starts. Just a single spray into one nostril is necessary and it will begin to work in around 15 minutes. The dispersible tablet should be placed on the tongue and allowed to dissolve.
