Description

What Are Rizatriptan 10mg Orodispersible Tablets?

Rizatriptan 10mg Orodispersible Tablets are a medication used to relieve migraine headaches. The tablets dissolve in the mouth, and the medication is absorbed into the bloodstream through the lining of the mouth. Rizatriptan 10mg Orodispersible Tablets are available as a generic medication and can be purchased at most pharmacies with a prescription.

How Do Rizatriptan 10mg Tablets Work?

Rizatriptan 10mg Orodispersible Tablets are used to treat migraines. They contain the active ingredient rizatriptan, which is a type of medicine called a serotonin agonist that blocks the release of serotonin in the brain. Serotonin is a substance that occurs naturally in the brain and is responsible for causing migraines. Migraine is often caused by dilatation of the blood vessels in the head. Rizatriptan works by blocking the release of serotonin, thus causing the blood vessels in the head to narrow, thereby relieving the pain of migraine. Rizatriptan 10mg Orodispersible Tablets can also help to reduce the duration of a migraine attack.
