Each tablet contains 12.5 mg of alomtriptan (Almotriptanum) in the form of almotriptan malate.

Indications

If the patient has another migraine attack within 24 hours, a second 12.5 mg tablet may be taken, provided there is at least a 2-hour interval between taking the first and second tablet.

The maximum daily dose is two tablets (25 mg) within 24 hours.

The tablet should be swallowed with a drink (e.g. water). The tablet can be taken with or without food.

The drug should be taken as soon as possible after the migraine attack started; however, it is also effective when taken at a later stage.
