Product description
Please attach the medical prescription in the attachments below. What is Eletriptan and what are its indications: Eletriptan is one of a group of medicines called serotonin receptor agonists. Serotonin is a natural substance found in the brain that helps constrict blood vessels. Eletriptan can be used to treat migraine with or without aura in adults. Before the migraine, you may go through a phase called the aura, which can include disturbances in vision, numbness, and speech disorders.

If you have severe liver or kidney disease. If you have moderate to severe high blood pressure or untreated mild high blood pressure. If you have heart problems, for example, heart attack, angina, heart failure, or irregular heartbeat, temporary and sudden narrowing of a coronary artery. If you have circulation problems (peripheral vascular disease). If you have had a stroke (even a minor stroke lasting a few minutes or hours). If you have taken ergotamine or medicines like ergotamine (including methysergide) within 24 hours before or after taking Eletriptan. If you are taking any other medicines ending with "triptan" (for example, sumatriptan, rizatriptan, naratriptan, zolmitriptan, almotriptan, frovatriptan).

Repeated use of migraine medications: If you use Eletriptan frequently or any medicines for migraine over several days or weeks, it may cause long-term daily headache. Inform your doctor if this occurs, as you may need to stop treatment for a while.
Other medicines and Eletriptan: Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking or have recently taken or might take any other medicines. Taking Eletriptan with some medicines can cause serious side effects. Do not use Eletriptan if you have taken ergotamine or similar medicines (including methysergide) within 24 hours before or after Eletriptan. Do not take any other medicines ending with "triptan" (for example, sumatriptan, rizatriptan, naratriptan, zolmitriptan, almotriptan, frovatriptan). Some medicines can affect how Eletriptan works, or Eletriptan itself may reduce the effectiveness of other medicines taken at the same time. These include: medicines used to treat fungal infections (such as ketoconazole, itraconazole), medicines used to treat bacterial infections (such as erythromycin, clarithromycin, josamycin), medicines used to treat AIDS and HIV (such as ritonavir, indinavir, nelfinavir). Herbal supplement St. John’s Wort (Hypericum perforatum) should not be taken at the same time as this medicine. If you are already taking St. John’s Wort, consult your doctor before stopping it.
Tell your doctor before starting treatment with Eletriptan if you are taking some medicines (commonly called SSRIs or SNRIs) for depression and other mental disorders. These medicines may increase the risk of serotonin syndrome when used together with some migraine medicines (see section 4. Possible side effects).
How to use Eletriptan: Always take this medicine exactly as your doctor has told you. Consult your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure.

This medicine should not be used to prevent a migraine attack. The usual starting dose is one 40 mg tablet. Swallow each tablet whole with water. If the first tablet does not relieve the migraine, do not take a second tablet for the same attack. If the migraine eases after the first tablet but then returns, you can take another tablet.
