About Migard 2.5mg Tablets

Migard 2.5mg Tablets contain frovatriptan 2.5mg, a medicine belonging to the triptan group used for the acute treatment of migraine attacks. Migard works by stimulating specific serotonin (5-HT1) receptors in the brain, helping to relieve migraine headache symptoms once an attack has started.

Migard 2.5mg Tablets are used to treat migraine with or without aura in adults. They are not intended for migraine prevention and should only be taken when migraine pain begins.
