What is Maxalt?

generic maxaltMaxalt is a medication used to treat an acute headache (migraine) with or without aura. The analog of the drug (generic Maxalt) is Rizatriptan.

A migraine is a hereditary chronic disease. A person may experience periodic severe headache attacks. In some cases, headache attack is accompanied by aura (symptoms observed shortly before a headache to come), nausea, vomiting.

Frequent migraine attacks considerably deteriorate the quality of life, therefore scientists have long been trying to create drugs, which could relieve a headache quickly and for a long time.

One of the best and most prescribed drugs in the world to treat a migraine is Maxalt with rizatriptan as an active ingredient. The drug selectively stimulates serotonin receptors, which leads to narrowing of blood vessels, decrease in development and release of nervous system protein molecules.

Thanks to this action, molecules do not reach the pain center and headache attack is stopped before starting.

The main Maxalt advantages are:

  • Acts in several directions at the same time to stop headache attack.
  • Reduces sensitivity to pain.
  • Narrows expanded craniocerebral vessels, vessels of brain cover, which reduces pulsation.
  • Blocks release of neuromodulators, removing inflammation and pain.
  • Provides disappearance of photophobia, vomiting, nausea.

The notable effect comes in 2-4 hours after the drug intake and lasts for several hours.

Important!

Treat a migraine by yourself only in cases, when the migraine diagnosis is verified by a medical specialist, who have provided you with a treatment plan. Uncontrollable drug intake without prior consultation with a medical specialist may not only cause complications but also influence proper diagnosing of disorders, more serious than a migraine. It may lead to heavy health disorders or even lethal outcome.

Maxalt dosage

Take 10 mg of Maxalt as a single dosage. You can take the second dosage of Maxalt generic if your headache has renewed. The daily dosage of Maxalt is 30 mg with an interval between intakes is not less than 2 hours.

If you also use Propranolol, it is recommended to use Maxalt in a single dosage of 5 mg. Do not exceed your daily dosage of Maxalt 15 mg.

The efficiency of repeated Maxalt intake to relieve a headache during the same migraine attack, if the effect is absent from the initial dose, is not studied during controlled researches.

Contraindications

  • hypersensitivity to Rizatriptan or any drug components;
  • heavy liver or renal failure;
  • history of acute cerebral circulation disorders or cerebral ischemic attacks;
  • moderate or heavy arterial hypertension or mild arterial hypertension in the absence of treatment;

What should I know before taking Maxalt?

Do not take Maxalt if you have a basilar or a hemiplegic migraine, in a case of a simple headache not typical for a migraine.

Avoid using the drug to relieve adynamy, weakness or a headache.
