Migard 2.5mg Tablets

Migard is most effective if taken at the onset of a migraine. However, this treatment can also provide some relief if taken later on during an attack. If your migraine returns, you can take a second tablet, two hours after your initial dose. Do not exceed two doses (2 tablets) within a 24-hour period.

It is safe to use painkillers, such as paracetamol or ibuprofen. Also, antiemetic treatments, such as Prochlorperazine Buccal Tablets can be used in conjunction with Migard.

However, it is not recommended to use two or more triptans medicines concurrently. Because all triptans work in a similar way, taking more than one will not provide any additional benefit. Instead, exceeding recommended dosages will put the user at greater risk of experiencing adverse side-effects.

Frovatriptan and Migard tablets are prescription-only medicines (POM). For that reason, we only supply a maximum of three packs of medicine at a time. This is to both ensure patient safety and the legal and ethical operating of our pharmacy.

limiting the quantity a patient can order allows us to offer an adequate supply of medicine, whilst providing the appropriate check-ups on their symptoms and treatment. This model provides the perfect balance between convenience and patient care.

If you do not suffer any adverse effects, and if your migraines are well controlled, you can easily log-in and re-order another supply.

Migard tablets can be taken with or without food. It is much more important that they are taken as soon as possible after a migraine attack begins.

None of the above should have any effect on Migard. However, alcohol can make a migraine attack worse, so you may want to avoid it. Although Migard is not affected by the contraceptive pill, migraines can be linked to hormonal changes during your period.

Migard and other triptans are used to treat acute episodes of migraine. They work by reversing the dilation of the blood vessels in the brain, which is thought to cause migraines. For this reason, they should only be used to treat existing, or oncoming migraines; and not be used as a preventative treatment.

Migard will prove ineffective at preventing migraines that have not yet occurred. They may even contribute to making your migraines worse if used as a preventative measure.

For more information on preventative treatments, you can read our Migraine page or go to the NHS Choices Migraine Prevention page.

Although it helps to relieve migraines, Migard is not a painkiller. All of the triptan medicines are serotonin agonists. The pain relief is a secondary effect.

If additional pain relief is required, Migard can be used alongside traditional painkillers such as paracetamol and ibuprofen.

This will depend on your symptoms and triggers. For example, people who suffer from sensitivity to light should sit or lie in a darkened room. Those who experience issues with sound should go somewhere quiet or use a good pair of earplugs to avoid irritating their symptoms further.

Often people feel better after eating, drinking or taking a nap as well as taking any necessary treatment.

Migard tablets are available on the NHS from your GP if you have been diagnosed with migraines. This is normally where we suggest people start their treatment, to ensure that their condition is properly diagnosed and any possible serious symptoms are addressed.

Many people can find it difficult to fit in time to see their GP or hard to get an appointment at all! It can, therefore, be more convenient to order your treatment online and have it delivered to your home or work address with minimum fuss. We also provide complete support to allow you to get any questions answered by our professional team by phone, email or live chat.
