Suffering from migraine can have a huge impact on your life, whether in the world of work or your social commitments. But Imigran Recovery, a treatment which is available over the counter from your pharmacy, could help you beat migraine

Not only is migraine a debilitating and unpleasant condition, sufferers often feel they have let down colleagues if they have to leave work early or disappointed friends when they have to cancel plans at the last minute.

Furthermore, non-sufferers find it difficult to understand how someone can be perfectly well one minute but almost totally debilatated a couple of hours later.

Help is at hand

Imigran Recovery is a specifically designed migraine treatment containing the active ingredient sumatriptan, previously only available on prescription, which is part of a class of drugs known as triptans and is available to purchase over the counter from your pharmacist.

How it works

Imigran Recovery is different from painkillers. The active ingredient, sumatriptan helps correct the chemical imbalance in the brain and return blood vessels to their normal size.

As a result, sensory nerves are calmed and the main migraine symptoms - headache, nausea, sensitivity to light (photophobia) and sound (phonophobia) - can vastly reduce or disappear.

Just one tablet can start to relieve migraine headache in around 30 minutes, meaning the days of having to cancel plans or go home from work early, could be long gone.

Taking Imigran Recovery

Imigran Recovery is available in two-tablet packs. As soon as you are sure you are experiencing a migraine, take the first tablet, while also bearing the following factors in mind:

• Imigran Recovery can still be effective even if you take it later in the attack
• If there is an improvement but symptoms return, then take the second tablet after at least two hours
• No more than two tablets should be taken within 24 hours to treat the same attack
• If there is no improvement after taking the first tablet, taking the second tablet will not be effective and it should not be taken

As migraine can affect sufferers in different ways, there are a number of different causes, signs and treatments to look out for. Use the Migraine Action Plan to help you find a positive way out of migraine.

Is it suitable for you?

Imigran Recovery can be used by most people aged 18-65 with a stable and established pattern of migraine.

However, like all medicines, it's not suitable for everyone and your pharmacist will ask you to fill out a short mandatory Migraine Questionnaire when purchasing Imigran Recovery for the first time.

To save time, download and complete the questionnaire today. Your pharmacist will then assess your responses and decide whether Imigran Recovery is suitable for you.
