FAQs

Answers to popular questions about Imigran

What is Imigran?

Imigran is the brand name for sumatriptan, manufactured by GlaxoSmithKline. It is a triptan medication used for the acute treatment of migraine attacks with or without aura. Imigran is available in several formulations: tablets (50 mg and 100 mg), nasal spray (10 mg and 20 mg), and subcutaneous injection (6 mg auto-injector). Imigran Recovery (50 mg tablets) is available over the counter from pharmacies. The injection and nasal spray formulations are prescription-only and are particularly useful for patients with severe nausea or vomiting during migraines.

What is the difference between Imigran and generic sumatriptan?

Imigran and generic sumatriptan contain the same active ingredient at the same dose and are bioequivalent — meaning they work in the same way with the same effectiveness. The main difference is the brand name and price. Generic sumatriptan is typically less expensive. The Imigran injection (auto-injector device) may differ from generic injection devices in design and ease of use. Your prescriber or pharmacist can advise on the most suitable and cost-effective option.

Which Imigran formulation is best for me?

The best formulation depends on your migraine symptoms. Tablets (50–100 mg) are convenient for most migraines with manageable nausea. The nasal spray (20 mg) works faster than tablets and is useful if vomiting prevents tablet absorption. The subcutaneous injection (6 mg) provides the fastest relief (within 10–15 minutes) and is best for severe, rapidly developing migraines or those with significant vomiting. Discuss with your prescriber which option suits your migraine pattern.

How do I use Imigran nasal spray?

Blow your nose gently before use. Insert the nozzle into one nostril while blocking the other. Press the plunger firmly and breathe in gently through the nose while keeping your mouth closed. Remove the spray and breathe gently through the mouth for 10–20 seconds. Do not blow your nose for at least 20 minutes after use. One spray (10 or 20 mg) per attack. A second dose may be used if symptoms return after at least 2 hours. Maximum 40 mg nasal spray in 24 hours.

How do I use the Imigran injection?

The Imigran auto-injector delivers a 6 mg subcutaneous dose. Clean the injection site (outer thigh or upper arm). Place the injector firmly against the skin and press the button. Hold in place until the injection is complete. A second injection may be given if the migraine returns, but not within 1 hour of the first dose. Maximum 12 mg (two injections) in 24 hours. Your prescriber or nurse will demonstrate proper technique.

What are the side effects of Imigran?

Common side effects include tingling, warmth, heaviness, pressure or tightness in the chest/throat/limbs, dizziness, drowsiness, and flushing. The injection may cause pain and redness at the injection site. The nasal spray may cause an unpleasant taste and nasal irritation. These effects are usually mild and transient. Chest tightness is common with triptans and is usually not cardiac in origin, but severe or persistent chest pain requires urgent medical assessment.

How can I get Imigran?

You can request Imigran through NowPatient by completing a short online consultation with one of our prescribing clinicians. Your clinician will review your migraine history, other medicines you take and your heart and blood pressure health to check that Imigran is suitable for you. If treatment is suitable, a prescription is issued and your medication is dispensed by our registered pharmacy and delivered to your door.
