Zomig (zolmitriptan) for migraines

January 1998

    Zeneca is promoting Zomig (zolmitriptan) for migraines. It's a "me too"...very similar to oral Imitrex (sumatriptan).

    Reps will say that Zomig is "dual-acting"...having both peripheral and CNS effects. But there's no proof yet that Zomig works any better than Imitrex to relieve migraines.

    Zomig comes in two strengths...2.5 mg and 5 mg.
