What is Rizatriptan?

Rizatriptan is a generic prescription drug formulated to relieve an active migraine. However, Rizatriptan is not to be prescribed for migraines that involve partial paralysis or that are concentrated at the base of the skull.

Rizatriptan relieves migraine pain in two ways. The pain of a migraine is due to the widening of blood vessels in the head. The pain signals are sent through a nerve in the face, called the trigeminal nerve, to the brain. Rizatriptan narrows blood vessels and also blocks signals from the trigeminal nerve to the brain.

Rizatriptan should be taken at the onset of a migraine for maximum effectiveness. Rizatriptan does not prevent migraines. Rizatriptan will not be effective on other types of headaches, such as tension headaches. Rizatriptan should be discontinued immediately if it has no effect on symptoms.
