Amerge Description
Amerge is used in the treatment of migraine headache attacks as they occur and will not reduce or prevent the number of migraines that you experience. This is a form of medication known as a cerebral vasoconstrictor and belongs to a group of medications known as the triptans. There may be other conditions where Amerge is a good choice of medication for you and so do not be surprised if your doctor prescribes you this medication for another condition. However you can expect a full explanation for why he or she has done so.
Amerge Directions
As is the case with all drugs, it is vital that you carefully follow the instructions given to you by your doctor. In most cases this will be written on the label of the medicine bottle or box and you must read this information very carefully. If you do happen to have any questions about how to take this medicine then you should talk to your pharmacist, nurse or doctor and they will be happy to help you. You must not crush, break or chew this medicine and should instead swallow it whole with a glass of water. The best time to take this medicine is when you first notice the symptoms of migraine coming on. If the headache returns after taking the medication, or if you only get partial relief from the first dose, then you can take another dose. However you must always leave about four hours between the doses. If there is no response from the first dose then you should not take any more as this medication will not help you. You must never take more than two tablets in one 24-hour period. Where you keep the medicine is very important and in this case it must be stored at room temperature (77 degrees F) away from the sun and in the bottle or box provided or in an airtight container. If you have any concerns then you should contact your pharmacist, nurse or doctor for more information.
