HEADSET TABLET

Uses and Benefits of HEADSET TABLET (Sumatriptan 85mg + Naproxen 500mg)

This combination medicine is used for the treatment of acute migraine headache attacks in adults.

WHAT THIS MEDICINE IS USED FOR

• Relief of acute migraine attacks with or without aura
• Relief of associated symptoms such as nausea, sensitivity to light and sound

HOW IT WORKS

• Sumatriptan narrows the swollen blood vessels around the brain and blocks pain signals
• Naproxen reduces inflammation and pain by blocking chemicals called prostaglandins
• Together they act faster and give more complete relief than either alone

• Treatment of tension-type or cluster headaches
• Long-term daily use for chronic pain conditions
• Other types of headache not diagnosed as migraine

This medicine should only be used when a doctor has confirmed the diagnosis of migraine and prescribed this specific combination.
