Common Questions and Answers about Rizatriptan mlt
maxalt
HI, my husband just moved to India for a month and has forgotten his prescription medication in America (Maxalt MLT) Is there anyone who would know what the Indian version of Maxalt MLT would be? I am currently posting from america. I could have it shipped but the cost and everything would take too long.
I went to a neurologist and they prescribed me Nortriptyline, Methylprednisolone, and Rizatriptan. Since I have taken these medications I have gained a little relief however, it all just came back after a week. When I was on rizatriptan it constricted the vessels on the temporal regions of my head and I did not feel them throbbing too much, however, there were still headaches.
Hi,
Maxalt is brand name for Rizatriptan. It belongs to the category of medication known as Triptans. Triptans are very effective in treatment of acute migraine attacks because they are known to reduce the swelling of blood vessels. Dilatation of blood vessels in the brain is known to cause migraines.

It is nice to know that you are finding this site useful. God bless!
By way of background I have chronic daily headaches as well as migraines with aura, and have had those since I was 14 (I’m 32 now). I take rizatriptan for the migraines and Tylenol and ibuprofen for the daily headache.
The first time I took Maxalt-Mlt it made me a bit dizzy. Also my nose and fingers got very cold.
However I didn't experience vomiting so I would call your doctor asap about that.
Another thing, you can only take two of those within a 24 hour period. If the first one didn't work, wait two hours then take another.
Pls call your doctor regarding this. Keep us updated pls.
I have a history of horrible migraines since my early teens and they just recently began. It's been exactly a week since I've had this particular migraine and since tylenol is the only safe thing I can take, I am in agony!! I'm used to taking excedrin and rizatriptan but neither of those are safe for the baby. I've tried sleeping, cold rags on my neck and forehead, head rubs, everything! And I just can't get rid of if! I'm to the point where I want to go to the e.
The last 2 weeks or so my migraines have gotten more frequent and less apt to respond to Rizatriptan. I am wondering if I am just having a bad week or if the accutane is to blame.
I had cataract removal surgery over a year ago with premium bifocal implants via laser. I've had occasional migraines since then but has come to daily occurrences since June 2022 (most of pain is behind left eye). I've seen my ophthalmologist twice since surgery and she says I have 20/20 vision with nothing wrong. I'm currently seeing a neurologist and he has prescribed Nortriptyline for preventative (which hasn't helped) and Rizatriptan to get rid of migraine.
Your doctor can prescribe you a quick dissolve tablet or a nasal spray (those are both better than a regular tablet) that you can take at home though... examples are maxalt-MLT, zomig-ZMT, zomig nasal spray, imitrex or imitrex nasal spray. But, only your doctor can prescribe these or say if they are actually appropriate for you and your headache (not everyone can take them).

I would suggest you to discuss this with your prescribing doctor if it is getting difficult to cope with this side effect. There are other triptans available which you can try like Rizatriptan.
Hope this helps!
I am currently taking Maxalt-MLT for the migraines, the only way that i can take the medication is if i take it and go to sleep. Most of the time i will wake up for with a headaches that is worse then the one that i had when i went to bed. I just don't know why my headaches are worse now then what they were before.
Apart from Excedrine Migraine, the other abortive drugs are the triptans (Sumatriptan, Rizatriptan) and ergot alkaloids. And some of the preventive drugs are anticonvulsants and antidepressants.
m taking (Rizatriptan, Diclofenac, and Fulticasone) since I have only started to take the medication last year. I was on ibuprofen but stop taking them since the doctor thought the bruising was caused by it. The doctors are treating the conditions that I mentioned separately. I'm not sure if they should be treating the symptoms together or separate. I'm starting to get scared, I'm just want to know what is happening to me.
Pharmacy medication that may help include triptiphans such as a brand named Maxalt MLT. The MLT is a melt version that disintegrates on the tongue and gets in the system faster. What may also help is a drug called Zofran it is also available in melt version and gets in the system fast. The Zofran will help with nausea and sometimes if taken quickly may even abort the migraine without Maxalt.
I agree Maxalt seems to be the better drug especially the MLT version as it gets into the blood stream much quicker. If after few more tries with Imitrex you don't find relief, ask your Doctor for a letter stating you failed to obtain relief with Imitrex and request that your prescription carrier allow you to continue with Maxalt. That should help you.
Specifically Imitrex works. Rizatriptan not so much.
If you get a triptan that is in a pill form it can take a long time to work... so, that is not so good for SS. That is why you need to get a triptan in either a nasal spray or a quick dissolve tablet, such as zomig nasal spray or imitrex nasal spray or maxalt quick dissolve tablets. There is also a injection that would be fast acting too...
It has been four days now but I have this weird pressure in my temple that doesn't go away. It almost feels as though it radiates to the bone behind my ear. I have migraines and have taken plenty of ibuprofen and my rizatriptan and those aren't making it go away. It doesn't ache really it just feels heavy. I also grind my teeth at night but I am not sure why I'd only have it on one side but I have tried my Flexeril as well and that hasn't helped.
All the mold gets churned up and I suffer for a few days until the humidity drops. The doctors were baffled , but prescribed Maxalt , which is a rizatriptan and it works decently to abort the pain before it gets serious. My front yard is waterfront and my home has a mold issue , yet my attacks start only after it rains. I am convinced beyond doubt that this is the culprit. You might consider a dehumidifier in your home.
Hi, I'm a 35 year old woman and I've been suffering from vertigo and dizziness for about 8 months now with tinnitus and hearing loss in my left ear. (I've had these symptoms on and off for about 10 years). Every doctor I've seen has mentioned Menieres but now my ENT consultant has said it's low down on the list and has now referred me to a neurologist and for an MRI. I'm terrified that there is something seriously wrong with me.
He prescribes rizatriptan along with naproxen and a steroid. In this whole combination of pills I have to say that a combination of the steroid and rizatriptan was the only thing that made it more or less bearable to the point where I was even able to go for a run and workout. He told me to only take no more than 4 doses of the steroid and once I was done my pain was back to its usual self.
Other combinations of pain killers with anti sickness medicines like domperidone and metoclopramide. The prescription medicines like triptans, rizatriptan and zolmitriptan come in various forms like nasal sprays, injections and tablets that dissolve on the tongue and can be used for you since nausea and vomiting is an issue. Prophylactic medicines like propranolol, pizotifen and valproate can be tried.
