User Reviews for sumatriptan nasal

Horrible side effects! I get severe nausea, a feeling of “floating,” muscle stiffness in my neck and shoulders, a tingling in my limbs and sweatiness. It does get rid of the migraine pain but the side effects are so bad that I am not able to function.

I've recently tried the nasal spray. Doesn't work. But neither did the injection. Nothing helps me honestly. I was really hoping for better results.

Did not help the Migraine within 20 min of taking the pill i was vomiting it right back up

I usually only have to take a half of a pill and I feel a bit better within 30 mins to an hour. I have been multiple pills for migraines and this one has been the best.

I don't normally get migraine but one every couple of months. I used Sumatriptan and every time I take it about 1/2 hour after I take it I alway throw up and then pass out finally. When I wake there is no more headache. So it works but I alway throw up.

I would like some feedback please!!!!!! Let me give you my history 1st. I have been using the nasal form for many years with pretty good results. The pill form does nothing for me! I used to use the injection form but started to get chest tightness when using it! However, I did get better & quicker results from it as I would get a "strange" burning sensation in the top of my "brain" and once I felt this, I knew the migraine would be gone w/in a short time. I did some research to see what the difference was w/the two (inj. & nasal spray) & found that the Inj. form is "SUMATRIPTAN SUCCINATE", while the nasal spray is only "SUMATRIPTAN". I have asked several Doctors, Pharmacists & Drug Reps who I've encountered while working in medical offices & not ONE of them have an answer for me as to what the difference the "succinate" makes & why it's in the inj. form & not the nasal spray! DOES ANYONE OUT THERE KNOW WHAT THE DIFFERENCE IS & WHY I WOULD GET THAT 'REACTION' W/THE INJ. & NOT THE NASAL SPRAY??? AND JUST WHAT IS THE 'SUCCINATE' PART OF THE DRUG? I would appreciate any info you can give me on this! Thank you in advance!Read More Read Less

just found out today from neurologist rebound headaches from imitrix are now probably my problem. it has been my only help for 20 yrs. & now its my problem?

I get migraines very often and I use the pill form of this medication which always worked for me, but lately they have just been making me dizzy and nauseated.

I have taken Imitrex for years. Recently was switched to generic brand and I suffered vertigo after taking this medicine. The headache was finally gone, but every time I moved my head, the room spun out of control and made me nausiated. This lasted for several hours.

I have taken sumatriptan nasl for about 15 years for periodic migraines. It is usually 100% effective within 30 min. However, it is becoming increasingly too expensive and I will have to switch to the oral form which is slower to act.

I suffer from cluster headaches. I've been taking the nasal spray for at least 2 yrs now and been great for me. Works great even in the middle of your worst headache.

had headache all day - took tylenol 3 as I normally do and not much relief. cld Dr, & he cld this in and within 20 - 30 min. felt so much better. Excellent.

works great had a migraine so bad my arms were numb and lips numb took the spray within twenty min i felt like myself again
