Naratrex

Uses
Naratrex (Naratriptan) is a migraine treatment that is used to provide relief from headaches, light sensitivity, vomiting and other symptoms that occur during a migraine attack. This drug is a type of painkiller, which is often referred to as a triptan or serotonin agonist. Medical experts believe that migraine occurs as a result of a widening in the blood vessels of the brain. By acting on the serotonin receptors in the brain, this medicine helps to narrow the blood vessels, thereby leading to relief from migraine symptoms.
