Description
Sumatriptan Succinate 100 mg is a selective serotonin receptor agonist commonly used for the acute treatment of migraine headaches with or without aura. It works by targeting serotonin 5-HT1B and 5-HT1D receptors in cranial blood vessels, leading to vasoconstriction and reducing neurogenic inflammation. The medication is intended for individuals experiencing moderate to severe migraine attacks.
The drug is formulated as film-coated tablets for oral administration, ensuring a smooth ingestion process and rapid absorption. Onset of action typically occurs within 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on individual response. Sumatriptan is not intended for preventive migraine therapy or for cluster headaches.
Potential side effects include dizziness, fatigue, flushing, and a sensation of tightness in the chest or throat. Serious adverse reactions, such as heart-related complications or serotonin syndrome, are rare but require immediate medical attention. The medication should be used cautiously in individuals with cardiovascular risk factors, uncontrolled hypertension, or a history of stroke.
