1. What is Naramig and what is it used for

Naramig tablets contain naratriptan (hydrochloride), which belongs to a group of medicines called triptans (also known as 5-HT1 receptor agonists).

Naramig tablets are used to treat migraine headaches.

Migraine symptoms may be caused by temporary widening of blood vessels in the head. It is thought that Naramig works by reversing this widening, which helps to relieve the headache and other symptoms of migraine, such as nausea and vomiting and sensitivity to light and sound.
