Zomig (Zolmitriptan)

What is Zomig Rapimelt?

Zomig Rapimelt is a medication used for relieving symptoms of migraines. It contains the active ingredient called Zolmitriptan.

How does it work?

Zolmitriptan works by binding to specific serotonin receptors 1B/1D in the brain. By activating these receptors, zolmitriptan helps to constrict the blood vessels in the brain that have become swollen/widened during a migraine attack, thereby reducing inflammation and pain associated with migraines.

Is Zomig Rapimelt right for me?

Zolmitriptan does not prevent a migraine attack however, it works effectively to reduce symptoms produced by a migraine attack.

However, it may not be suitable for you if you have the following:

• If you are allergic to the active ingredient
• suffer with high blood pressure
• have liver or kidney problems
• taking any other migraine medication e.g. ergotamine or ergot type medications
