1. What is Zolmitriptan Flas Qualigen and what is it used for

Zolmitriptan Flas Qualigen belongs to a group of medications called triptans.

Zolmitriptan Flas Qualigen is used to treat migraine headaches

  • The symptoms of migraine can be caused by the dilation (widening) of blood vessels in the head. Zolmitriptan Flas Qualigen decreases the dilation of these blood vessels. This helps to alleviate the headache and other symptoms of a migraine attack, such as nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound.
  • Zolmitriptan Flas Qualigen will not prevent a migraine attack from occurring, it is only effective when a migraine attack has started.
