Migraines & Triptans

It is a fairly well-known fact that the use of Triptans is commonly used for migraine treatment. Many of the prescription medications that are used in modern medicine come with an array of problems and negative side effects that accompany them. As consumers and patients we do not just have to follow the “norm” and follow the prescription companies and their sales pitches. There are most likely always other options that are considered healthier for the body as a whole that can aid in symptom relief of conditions.

What are Triptans?

Triptans are a general classification of prescription drugs that are intended to help migraine headaches. More specifically, Triptans are geared towards relieving the pressure that is associated with migraines. Triptans are a collection of tryptamine-based drugs, the most commonly prescribed Triptans are Sumatriptan, Rizatriptan, Naratriptan, Zolmitriptan, Eletriptan, Elmotriptan, Frovatriptan, as well as Avitriptan .

The two main functions of Triptans are to constrict blood vessels as well as upset the process which leads to the migraine by disturbing the sequence of chemicals that would inflict pain or irritation to the nerve in the first place. Generally speaking Triptans are usually only prescribed to migraine sufferers with moderate to severe migraine pain who have tried other forms of migraine treatment that were not successful. In order for Triptans to work correctly they must be used early on during a migraine attack, since the sooner the drug is taken the more effectively it works, when used correctly Triptans will reduce the amount of pain during a migraine. But there is another side of the coin in regards to Triptans, while being beneficial as a migraine treatment there are many negative side effects associated with Triptans such as Drowsiness, Facial Reddening, Fatigue, Tightening in the Chest, Tightening in the Throat, and Dizziness. Triptans work to narrow the blood vessels in order to relieve migraine pain, but this can be dangerous because the narrowing of blood vessels can take place in other parts of the body such as in the arteries of the heart. For this reason Triptans are dangerous for individuals with coronary narrowing to take.  

Other Migraine Treatments

Because Triptans have so many negative side effects it is important for migraine sufferers to be aware of other, more natural migraine treatment options that do exist. Some common alternative migraine treatment options include therapies such as Massage, Acupuncture, or Biofeedback. The use of Chiropractic manipulation is also successful in the world of migraine treatment. Other alternative yet highly effective options include the use of supplements and herbs for migraine prevention and treatment.  Just because a certain medication is suggested by a physician or pharmaceutical company doesn’t always mean it’s the best option. As a patient, and migraine sufferer people need to know their options and which ones are considered more natural and holistic.
