Sumeday 50 Tablet IR is used to treat migraine. It reduces the symptoms of migraine and stops the attack from becoming worse. It contains Sumatriptan, which works by narrowing the blood vessels in the head, stopping the spread of pain to the brain, and blocking the release of substances that cause nausea and other migraine symptoms. This relieves the attack of migraine. It may cause side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, weakness, peripheral neuropathy (itchy and numbness of hands and feet), and flushing (hotness in the ears, face, trunk, and neck). Before taking this medicine, you should tell your doctor if you are allergic to any of its components or if you are pregnant/breastfeeding, and about all the medications you are taking and pre-existing medical conditions.
