AMERGE
Generic Name: naratriptan (NAIR uh trip tin) Brand Names: Amerge
Take Amerge tablets by mouth. Follow the directions on the prescription label. Amerge is taken after the migraine attack starts; it is not for everyday use. Swallow the tablets whole with fluids. If your migraine headache returns after one dose, you can take another dose as directed. You must allow at least 4 hours between doses, and do not take more than 5 mg in 24 hours. If there is no improvement at all after the first dose, do not take a second dose without talking to your prescriber or health care professional. Do not take your medicine more often than directed. Amerge helps to relieve a migraine attack that starts with or without aura (a peculiar feeling or visual disturbance that warns you of an attack). Generic Amerge tablets are not yet available.  Take all of the Amerge that has been prescribed for you even if you begin to feel better. The symptoms may begin to improve before the infection is completely treated. In rare cases, Amerge has caused severe liver damage, sometimes resulting in liver transplant or death. Notify your doctor immediately if you develop nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, unusual fatigue, loss of appetite, yellow skin or eyes, itching, dark urine, or clay colored stools. These symptoms may be early signs of liver damage. |
