IMITREX is a
prescription medicine for the acute treatment of
migraine attacks, with or without aura, in adults. You
should not take IMITREX if you have
certain types of heart disease, a history of stroke or
TIAs, peripheral vascular disease, Raynaud syndrome, or
blood pressure that is uncontrolled. If you
have risk factors for heart disease, such as high blood
pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, or are a smoker,
you should be evaluated by your doctor
before taking IMITREX. Very rarely, certain people, even
some without heart disease, have had serious heart-related
problems when taking IMITREX.
If you are currently taking other medications or if you
are pregnant, nursing, or thinking about becoming pregnant,
you should talk to your doctor before
taking IMITREX. If your headaches are not migraines, IMITREX
is not for you. |

The key to successful migraine treatment is you! The more involved you become in your treatment, the more likely you are to get relief from your pain. The following migraine calendar will help you and your doctor track your migraines and how well IMITREX is working. It can also help you identify triggers that may be contributing to your headaches. Be sure to record information for each attack as accurately as you can, then discuss your findings with your doctor.
