Frequently Asked Questions

What is Almotriptan? 

Almotriptan is a triptan drug that is prescribed to treat migraine headaches. Triptan drugs are tryptamine-based medications used as an immediate remedy for migraines and cluster headaches. Almotriptan belongs to a class of medication known as selective serotonin receptor agonists that creates a biological response in the brain.

Almotriptan is effective in relieving migraine attacks and it may also contribute to their prevention.

Taking Almotriptan when you start experiencing a migraine attack will help you in getting back to your normal activities and decrease your need for other pain medications.

How does Almotriptan work? 

Since Almotriptan is a selective serotonin receptor agonist type of drug, it works by constricting blood vessels in the brain, thus, preventing pain signals from being sent to the brain. This blocks the release of certain natural substances that cause pain, nausea, and other symptoms of a migraine.

What are the benefits of using Almotriptan? 

The relief from migraine attacks is the main benefit of taking Almotriptan pills. This medication also reduces the other symptoms including nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light or sound.

With Almotriptan, you get a pain reliever specifically for migraines. It blocks the headache reaction in the brain and is still effective even at a late stage of a migraine attack. At True Medical, medicines such as Almotriptan, are sourced from the UK which guarantees a genuine medication.

Want to Learn More About Almotriptan?

It is best to follow your doctor’s advice on how to take this medication. You must also follow the instructions included in the Patient Information Leaflet enclosed in every medicine package. Discuss any concerns with your doctor if there is anything in the instruction leaflet on using the medication that you do not understand.

Almotriptan is available in tablet form and should be taken orally. You should take this medication once you start to experience the first signs of a migraine. You may take a second pill if your migraine symptoms improve for a short period of time and start to come back after at least 2 hours. If your symptoms still have no signs of improvement afterwards, do not take any more tablets unless your doctor allows you to do so.

A heart exam may be performed by your doctor before you start taking this medication if you have a high risk of heart problems. You may be asked by your doctor to take the first dose of Almotriptan in their office or clinic to monitor you for any serious reactions.

If your migraine headache persists and still occurs frequently after you started taking Almotriptan, inform your doctor immediately.

If the symptoms of your migraine do not improve, do not increase your dose of Almotriptan without consulting your doctor. If the symptoms are relieved partially or if the symptoms return, you may take a second dose of the medication after 2 hours. Never take more than 2 doses of this medication in 24 hours.

Taking Almotriptan more often or for longer than prescribed by your doctor may increase the intensity and frequency of your headaches. Almotriptan is not recommended to be taken for over 10 days each month. Contact your doctor if you require this medication to treat more than four migraine attacks in 30 days.

Almotriptan dosage

The doctor will usually require the first dose of this medication to be administered in a clinic or hospital setting. This will ensure proper monitoring to treat any serious side effects that may occur immediately.

The usual dose of this medication is one tablet at the start of a migraine. If you get relief after taking the medication but experience symptoms again after two hours, you can take another tablet. The maximum dose of Almotriptan is 2 tablets in 24 hours. If, after taking two consecutive tablets in one day, the symptoms persist, do not take another tablet but call your doctor instead.

With medications, there’s always a risk of experiencing side effects. However, not everyone will experience a serious or even mild side effect. This medicine is prescribed if a doctor has gauged that the benefits are greater than the side effects.

Call for urgent medical help if you notice signs of an allergic reaction to this medicine, such as a difficulty of breathing, hives, and swelling of your face, lips, throat, or tongue.

Immediately stop the use of Almotriptan if you experience symptoms of a heart attack, including chest pain or pressure, nausea, feeling light-headed, sweating, and pain that spreads to your jaw or shoulder. In this case, call for emergency medical services.

Stop the use of this medication and contact your doctor immediately if you have:

  • Blood circulation problems
  • Numbness or tingling sensation or blue-coloured appearance in your fingers and toes
  • Symptoms of a high level of serotonin in the body, such as hallucination, agitation, fast heart rate, fever, nausea, overactive reflexes, vomiting, loss of coordination, diarrhoea, or fainting
  • Stomach or intestinal problems such as severe stomach pain, fever, vomiting, nausea, diarrhoea, bloody or tarry stools, or constipation.

Common Almotriptan side effects include:

  • Dryness of the mouth
  • Vomiting, or feeling sick or nausea
  • Dizziness or drowsiness
  • Numbness, tingling, or burning sensation
  • A mild headache (not a migraine)

Before taking Almotriptan, tell your doctor if you are allergic to it and other triptan medicines. It will also help if you inform them of any other forms of allergies that you have. Almotriptan may have inactive ingredients that can cause allergic reactions or other problems.

Discuss with your doctor your medical history before you start taking Almotriptan. There are health conditions that may increase your risk for heart problems, such as diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, smoker, overweight, postmenopausal women, or more than age 40 for men.

Almotriptan can cause dizziness. Intake of alcohol and marijuana use can even increase this dizziness. Be certain of your alertness first before you drive a vehicle or operate machinery. Reduce your intake of alcohol while using Almotriptan. Discuss with your doctor if you are using marijuana.

Using Almotriptan during Pregnancy and Breastfeeding

Carefully weigh the necessity of taking Almotriptan if you are pregnant or expecting to get pregnant. It is best to discuss with your doctor the benefits and risks of taking this medicine during pregnancy before using it.

The effect of this medication on breastfeeding has not yet been carefully studied. Ask your doctor first if you are breastfeeding and would like to take this medication.

Almotriptan may interact with other medications that may influence the effectiveness or increase your risk of experiencing side effects. Inform your doctor if you are currently taking other medications to determine the possibility of drug interactions among them.

Drug interactions may happen if different medicines are taken at the same time. Ask your doctor about the proper spacing when taking various medications to minimize and prevent drug interactions.
