No, Maxalt is a triptan, not a barbiturate.
Yes Maxalt is a controlled drug used to treat migrain headaches. The FDA classiffies it as a Schedule lll drug.
No, Maxalt is the brand name of the Rizatriptan, which is an anti-migraine medication. It is not a narcotic drug and belongs to a class of medications known as the triptans.
There seems to be little to no evidence that Maxalt (Rizatriptan) would cause a false positive on a drug test. Even if it were to cause a false positive, it would most likely do so for tryptamines, which are not commonly tested for anyway.
Yes, you can take NyQuil after Maxalt, but it is a good idea to take these two medications at least four hours apart. You should be careful combining NyQuil with any other medication because drug interactions are common with this medication.
I would recommend separating them for one reason only. When you have a migraine, you are going to have nausea. Take the maxalt immediately and get your migraine under control. You don't want to throw anything else into an upset stomach. Then you can take the Flexeril once your stomach feels better.
Your child is sick. Take it to a doctor.
As I have researched this extensively, the patent that Merck holds on Maxalt expired on June 29, 2012. However, Merck has been granted a 153 day extension which would run to nearly the end of 2012. No word yet on any further extensions. Maxalt is very expensive and as a sufferer of cluster headaches, this is the only medication from some two dozen I have tried that works every time. I can only hope the patent is allowed to expire so that generic brands at lower costs will be made available.
Maxalt 5 mg tablets. Quantity of 18. Take one at onset of migraine and one every 4 hours until relieved. Max of 3 tablets daily.
ergotamine (Cafergot), naratriptan (Amerge), sumatriptan (Imitrex), rizatriptan (Maxalt), almotriptan (Axert), and zolmitriptan (Zomig).
Nope. Since it's a non-narcotic, there's nothing to worry about.
Yes, you can generally take ibuprofen and Maxalt (rizatriptan) together, as there are no direct interactions between the two medications. However, it's essential to consult with a healthcare professional before combining them, especially if you have any underlying health conditions or are taking other medications. Always follow the recommended dosages and guidelines provided by your doctor or pharmacist.
