About Rizatriptan:

What is Rizatriptan?

Rizatriptan is a selective serotonin receptor agonist (a triptan) used to treat acute migraine headaches. It helps reduce inflammation and constriction of blood vessels in the brain, which are believed to cause migraine symptoms.

How Does Rizatriptan Work?

It stimulates serotonin (5-HT1) receptors in the brain, reducing neurogenic inflammation and constricting dilated blood vessels—both of which contribute to relieving migraine symptoms quickly.

Understanding the Condition:
