Triptans are a class of medications that include Zomig Rapimelt, which contains the active ingredient zolmitriptan.

Migraine headaches are treated with Zomig Rapimelt. Blood vessels in the head that are enlarged may be the source of migraine symptoms. It is thought that Zomig Rapimelt reduces the widening of these blood vessels. This helps to relieve the migraine headache as well as associated symptoms like feeling or being sick (nausea or vomiting) and sensitivity to light and sound.

You should reduce migraine symptoms within 2 hours of taking a dose, although some people may feel relief sooner. 

Only when a migraine attack has begun does Zomig Rapimelt start to help. It won't protect you from getting a migraine attack. Although, this medication is equally effective whenever the tablets are taken during a migraine attack
