What are Numark Migraine Tablets?

Numark Migraine Tablets can relieve migraines and their symptoms with just one or two tablets. Ideal for those who suffer from migraines and don’t want to have to take lots of tablets to keep them under control.

 

What are migraines?

Migraines are painful headaches that feel like intense throbbing in one side of your head. They are often accompanied by other symptoms and can have a migraine aura, which are symptoms that warn you that you are about to get a migraine. Some of the symptoms you may experience with a migraine or migraine aura include:

  • Nausea
  • Vomiting
  • Feeling very hot or very cold
  • Increased sensitivity to light or sound
  • Sweating
  • Stomach pain
  • Difficulty concentrating
  • Diarrhoea
  • Visual problems, e.g. seeing flashing lights, blind spots
  • Numbness or tingling in the hand and arm, leading up to the face
  • Feeling dizzy
  • Difficulty speaking

 

How will these tablets relieve my migraines?

Numark Migraine Tablets contain the active ingredient sumatriptan, which is a part of a group of medicines called triptans. This means that it helps to relieve migraines by working on the body’s imbalance of natural chemicals that cause the blood vessels in your head to swell temporarily. This helps to ease the pain of migraines and also reduce other symptoms, such as nausea and sensitivity to light and sound.

 

How to take Numark Migraine Tablets

Take one Numark Migraine Tablet as soon as you experience the very first symptoms of a migraine headache. If your symptoms start to come back, you can take a second tablet after 2 hours. Do not take more than 2 tablets in any 24 hours and leave a 2-hour gap between taking each tablet. Do not take more than 2 tablets for the same attack. If the first tablet does not ease your symptoms at all, do not take a second tablet.

I am prescribed this for Cluster Headaches but I occasionally have to purchase some to keep by. If I take it at the right time my symptoms are 90% relieved within 30 minutes. If I'm a little late I take Ibuprofen and Codeine with it.

Advice & Guides

Can I take two painkillers at once?

Sometimes when you take painkillers you find that although they make your headache, backache, or whatever your aches and pains you’re trying to treat a bit better, they don’t quite do the job.

This is when you might consider picking up another painkiller to try to kick that pain to the curb. But how do you know if this is safe? Can you take more than one painkiller at once?

If you’ve ever looked into your medicine cabinet and asked yourself one of these questions then you’ve come to the right place.
