Description

Maxalt (rizatriptan) is a headache medicine that narrows the blood
vessels around the brain. Rizatriptan also reduces substances in the
body that can trigger headache pain, nausea, sensitivity to light and
sound, and other migraine symptoms.

General Information

The health and medical information provided here is for general purposes
only and is not a substitute for the expertise and judgment of your
physician, or other health care professional. It should not be
understood to indicate that the use of this medicine is safe,
appropriate or effective for you. Always consult your health care
professional before using this, or any other, drug.

Warning & Precautions

You should not take Maxalt if you are allergic to rizatriptan, if you
have any history of heart disease, or if you have coronary heart
disease, angina, blood circulation problems, lack of blood supply to the
heart, uncontrolled high blood pressure, ischemic bowel disease, a
history of a heart attack or stroke, or if your headache seems to be
different from your usual migraine headaches.

Do not take Maxalt within 24 hours before or after using another
migraine headache medicine, including almotriptan (Axert), eletriptan
(Relpax), frovatriptan (Frova), naratriptan (Amerge), sumatriptan
(Imitrex, Treximet), zolmitriptan (Zomig), or ergot medicine such as
ergotamine (Ergomar, Cafergot, Migergot), dihydroergotamine (D.H.E. 45,
Migranal), or methylergonovine (Methergine). Do not use Maxalt if you
have taken a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) such as furazolidone
(Furoxone), isocarboxazid (Marplan), phenelzine (Nardil), rasagiline
(Azilect), selegiline (Eldepryl, Emsam, Zelapar), or tranylcypromine
(Parnate) in the past 14 days.

Before taking Maxalt, tell your doctor if you have liver or kidney
disease, high blood pressure, a heart rhythm disorder, or coronary heart
disease (or risk factors such as diabetes, menopause, smoking, being
overweight, having high cholesterol, having a family history of coronary
artery disease, being older than 40 and a man, or being a woman who has
had a hysterectomy).

Also tell your doctor if you are also taking an antidepressant such
as citalopram (Celexa), desvenlafaxine (Pristiq), duloxetine (Cymbalta),
escitalopram (Lexapro), fluoxetine (Prozac, Sarafem), fluvoxamine
(Luvox), paroxetine (Paxil), sertraline (Zoloft), or venlafaxine
(Effexor).

Maxalt will only treat a headache that has already begun. It will not prevent headaches or reduce the number of attacks.

After taking a Maxalt tablet, you must wait two (2) hours before
taking a second tablet. Do not take more than 30 mg of rizatriptan in 24
hours.

Directions to use

Take Maxalt exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not take in
larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended. Follow the
directions on your prescription label. Overuse of migraine headache
medicine can actually make your headaches worse.

Take Maxalt as soon as you notice headache symptoms, or after an attack has already begun.

Your doctor may want to give your first dose of Maxalt in a hospital
or clinic setting to see if you have any serious side effects.

Take one Maxalt tablet whole with a full glass of water.

To take rizatriptan orally disintegrating tablets (Maxalt-MLT):

• 
  

  
  Keep the tablet in its blister pack until you are ready to take the
  medicine. Open the package and peel back the foil from the tablet
  blister. Do not push a tablet through the foil or you may damage the
  tablet.
  

  
  


• 
  

  
  Using dry hands, remove the tablet and place it in your mouth. It will begin to dissolve right away.
  

  
  


• 
  

  
  Do not swallow the tablet whole. Allow it to dissolve in your mouth without chewing.
  

  
  


• 
  

  
  Swallow several times as the tablet dissolves. If desired, you may drink liquid to help swallow the dissolved tablet.
  

  
  

After taking a tablet: If your headache does not completely go away,
or goes away and comes back, take a second tablet two (2) hours after
the first. Do not take more than 30 mg of rizatriptan in 24 hours. If
your symptoms have not improved, contact your doctor before taking any
more tablets.

Contact your doctor if you have more than four headaches in one month (30 days).

If you use Maxalt long-term, your doctor may want to check your heart
function using an electrocardiograph or ECG (sometimes called an EKG), a
machine that measures electrical activity of the heart. This will help
your doctor determine if it is still safe for you to use this
medication. Visit your doctor regularly.

Store Maxalt at room temperature away from moisture and heat.
