Teva Frovatriptan How to Take

Frovatriptan belongs to a class of medications known as 5-hydroxytryptamine agonists (also called triptans). It is used to treat migraine Headaches with or without aura (warning signs that occur prior to the onset of a migraine) in adults. The pain of migraine headaches is thought to be caused by dilated blood vessels inside the head. Frovatriptan relieves migraine headaches by constricting these blood vessels.

Frovatriptan is not recommended for other types of headache or for headache prevention.

The recommended adult dose of frovatriptan is 2.5 mg taken by mouth with fluids for migraine headache with or without aura. If the headache goes away with the first dose but then returns, a second dose of 2.5 mg may be taken between 4 and 24 hours after the first. You should never take more than 2 tablets in a 24-hour period.

Many things can affect the dose of medication that a person needs, such as body weight, other medical conditions, and other medications. If your doctor has recommended a dose different from the ones listed here, do not change the way that you are taking the medication without consulting your doctor.
