Does Zomig contain caffeine?

No, Zomig (zolmitriptan) does not contain caffeine. It is a medication used to treat migraine headaches and belongs to a class of drugs known as triptans, which work by narrowing blood vessels in the brain. Caffeine is sometimes included in other migraine treatments, but Zomig does not have it as an ingredient. Always consult with a healthcare professional for specific medication queries.


How long does zomig stay in your system?

Zomig (zolmitriptan) has a half-life of about 3 hours, meaning it takes around 18 hours to be mostly cleared from your system. However, individual factors such as metabolism and dose can affect how long it stays in the body.


Can you take zomig tablets with panadol?

Zomig (zolmitriptan) is a medication used to treat migraines, while Panadol (paracetamol) is a pain reliever. They can typically be taken together, as there are no direct drug interactions between them. However, it's always best to consult with a healthcare professional or pharmacist before combining medications to ensure safety, especially if you have any underlying health conditions or are taking other medications.


How often can you take a zomig tablet?

Zomig is a prescription medicine, and as such needs to be taken as directed by your doctor who knows your personal medical history as well as the potential implications of taking this medicine. Never change your medicine protocol without first talking to your doctor for detailed instructions.


Can excedrin be taken with zomig?

Excedrin contains acetaminophen, aspirin, and caffeine, while Zomig (zolmitriptan) is a medication used to treat migraines.

Always check with your doctor or pharmacist before mixing medications to ensure safety and efficacy for your specific situation.

Zomig, which contains the active ingredient zolmitriptan, was first approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1997 for the treatment of migraine.

What interactions may occur with antimigraine drugs?

Sumatriptan (Imitrex), naratriptan (Amerge), rizatriptan (Maxalt) and zolmitriptan (Zomig) may interact with ergotamine. These drugs should not be taken within 24 hours of taking any drug containing ergotamine.


Why does your headache feel worse after taking sumatriptan?

Some people react badly to sumatriptan, just as some people react badly to Penicillin. Treating migraines is all about trial and error, unfortunately. There may be other triptans you can take which do not cause you to feel worse (Zomig, Maxalt, Axert, Amerge, Relpax, Frova) I would not recommend Treximet, because that is just sumatriptan with naproxen added.


Can you take naproxen and Xanax together?

Got a migraine eh? It's safe to take the two - though as a side point, zomig should only be used if you are sure it's a migraine that you have. It could be potentially dangerous if something else were causing the headache, as could the naproxen.
