ZOMIG  (ZOLMITRIPTAN):  Zolmitriptan is used to treat migraines. It helps to relieve headache, pain, and other migraine symptoms (including nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light/sound). Prompt treatment helps you return to your normal routine and may decrease your need for other pain medications. Zolmitriptan belongs to a class of drugs known as triptans. It affects a certain natural substance (serotonin) that causes narrowing of blood vessels in the brain. It may also relieve pain by affecting certain nerves in the brain. Zolmitriptan does not prevent future migraines or lessen how often you get migraine attacks.   FDA Approval Date: 1997-11-25 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 4  migraine sometimes: wooziness, slight nausea, fatigue If I take 5 mg of Zomig, I get very sleepy and a sometimes a bit woozy. I cut the 5 mg pills in half -- that seems to work. I find it better if I rotate Zomig, Imitrex, and Maxalt. F 65 2 years

 5  severe recurrent migraines Had problems with the ordinary tablets due to Lactose allergy - often not very sucessful at helping the migraines. "Zomig Rapimelt" have made such a difference - they are fantastic! I can often carry on with what I am doing within 15-30 minutes rather than having to resort to a dark room! They are much more effective, work quicker and easier to take too. (Zomig Tablets - a few years, Zomig Rapimelt - 5 months) 5 months

 5  Frequent migraine headaches None This has truly been a miracle drug for me. Within 20 minutes of taking the drug, usually the headache and/or visual aura is completely gone. I've gone from dreading the days when headaches would start and continue for 2-3 days to having the confidence it can be stopped midstream. Though expensive, it's a wonder drug to me! F 47 2 years
