| | Imitrex should be used only
to treat an acute, classic migraine attack or a cluster headache. |
 |  |  |
 |
 |    |   |
| | One dose of Imitrex is taken
by mouth at the first signs of a migraine attack. If you must take a second dose,
do so exactly as instructed by your doctor. Do not take more than 200mg in a 24
hour period. Tablets are to be swallowed whole with a glass of water. Do not crush
or chew them. |  |  |  |
 |
 |   |  |
| | Imitrex may initially cause
flushing, dizziness, weakness, nausea, drowsiness, stiffness, or feelings of tingling,
heat, fatigue. If any of these effects continue or become bothersome, inform your
doctor. In the unlikely event you have an allergic reaction to this drug, seek
immediate medical attention. Symptoms of an allergic reaction include: rash, itching,
swelling, dizziness, trouble breathing. If you notice other effects not listed
above, contact your doctor or pharmacist. |  |  |  |

| | Tell your doctor if you have:
heart disease, coronary artery disease, high blood pressure, stroke, kidney disease,
liver disease, allergies (especially drug allergies). There have been rare reports
of those with sulfa drug allergies having allergic reactions to sumatriptan. Consult
your doctor or pharmacist. Since this medication may cause drowsiness, use caution
operating machinery or engaging in activities requiring alertness and avoid alcohol
because it may increase drowsiness/dizziness effects. The manufacturer does not
recommend use of sumatriptan in the elderly, because they may be more sensitive
to its side effects. Sumatriptan should be used during pregnancy only when clearly
needed. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor. Imitrex is excreted into
breast milk. The effects on nursing infants are unknown at this time. Consult
your doctor before breast-feeding. |  |  |  |
 |
 |   |  |
| | Tell your doctor of all over-the-counter
and prescription medication you take, especially of: ergotamine- containing medication,
all headache drugs, MAO inhibitors (e.g., furazolidone, linezolid, phenelzine,
selegiline, tranylcypromine). Do not take MAO inhibitors with sumatriptan or use
sumatriptan within 2 weeks of stopping use of MAO inhibitors. Do not take any
ergotamine-containing medication and sumatriptan within 24 hours of each other.
Also, report the use of all antidepressants or any medications used for weight
control. If you are unsure about the types of medications you take, ask your care
provider or pharmacist. It is recommended to avoid consumption of alcohol while
taking this medication. Do not start or stop any medicine without doctor or pharmacist
approval. |  |  |  |
 |
 |   |  |
| | Take Imitrex only when a migraine
attack occurs as directed. This is not taken routinely. Never "double-up"
the dose. |  |  |  |
 |
 |   |  |
| | Store Imitrex
at room temperature between 59 and 86 degrees F (15 and 30 degrees C) in a tightly-closed
container, away from heat and light. Keep this and all medications out of the
reach of children. | | | | |
