A Medicine Not Designed For All

Posted In Prevention | No comments

pillsNo two people are alike, everybody is designed differently and their body reacts and responds differently based on how they are made. Some women can handle birthing babies naturally whereas others are forced into a caesarian due to how their body is made up. The same is true when it comes to treating migraine headaches, not every two migraine sufferers are alike when it comes to responding well to treatment. There are those migraine sufferers that respond really well to over the counter medication because their migraine symptoms never reach the debilitating point, where as some migraine sufferers must take a step further and find a treatment that is more intense.

 

Prescription medication should be one of the last treatments tried in helping relieve migraine headaches. New prescription medication called triptans is now available on the market and is geared toward relieving migraine pressure. Triptans have two important abilities:

  1. They are able to      constrict blood vessels.
  2. They create an      upset in the process which leads into a migraine by disturbing the      sequence of chemicals that inflict pain or irritation to the nerves.

 

Triptans: What Are They?                               

Triptans are a collection of tryptamine-based drugs. Tryptamine is a monoamine alkaloid that can be found in certain vegetation such as plants, fungi and animals. Triptans are used as a tool to prevent migraines from being successful in completely immobilizing an individual. Triptans consist of:

 

Because of triptans unique ability to attach to the serotonin receptors on the blood vessels and the surrounding nerves, they can help reduce and in some cases completely stop migraine headaches from occurring. We mentioned several triptans and you might be feeling somewhat overwhelmed and unsure as to which one is worth speaking to your doctor about. The most commonly used triptan and the one with the longest use history would be Sumatriptan. Sumatriptan can be taken orally, by injection or through inhalation.

Doctors will not go around prescribing triptans for everyone complaining that they suffer from migraines. Triptans are typically only prescribed to migraine sufferers that experience moderate to severe migraine pain and even then other forms of migraine treatment will be discussed and ruled out before a doctor will recommend or suggest a triptan.

 

Benefits Of Use

If used correctly, Triptans will reduce the amount of pain felt and increase in its effectiveness. Triptans should be administered when the early signs and symptoms of a migraine begin to be felt. Taking one after the pain has settled in will reduce the effectiveness and increase the chances for side effects as well as a migraine relapse.

 

The Down Side

Triptans have been useful in the treatment of migraine pain, however there are a few risks involved that those considering treating their migraines with triptans ought to be aware of. The most common side effects associated with triptans are but not limited to:

  • Drowsiness
  • Facial Reddening
  • Fatigue
  • Tightening In The Chest
  • Tightening In The Throat
  • Dizziness

 

The role Triptans play in releasing migraine pain is due to the affect triptans have on the restriction of blood vessels or the narrowing of them to prevent them from enlarging and creating migraine pain. Though narrowing is part of their job, it can also have a reverse effect by not only narrowing the arteries in the head but also create a narrowing of the arteries in the heart. This becomes increasingly dangerous for those individuals that have already experienced some form of coronary narrowing. The narrowing caused by the triptans could lead to further narrowing resulting in a heart attack or stroke.

Even if you consider yourself a healthy individual, be aware that if your doctor is considering prescribing triptans to help with your migraine pain he or she might prescribe a full body evaluation first in order to insure that everything is ok physically before he or she gives a green light on using triptans. Even if a green light is given you the migraine sufferer must make a decision and determine if this is a safe approach to treatment.
