sumatriptan
Sumatriptan is a medication used for the treatment of migraine headaches.〔
It is a synthetic drug belonging to the triptan class. Structurally, it is an analog of the naturally occurring neuro-active alkaloids dimethyltryptamine (DMT), bufotenine, and 5-methoxy-dimethyltryptamine, with an N-methyl sulfonamidomethyl- group at position C-5 on the indole ring.〔The presence of the sulfonamide group in the molecule does not make sumatriptan a "sulfa drug".〕
Sumatriptan is produced and marketed by various drug manufacturers with many different trade names such as Imitrex, Imigran, and Treximet as a combination product with naproxen.
==Medical uses==
Sumatriptan is effective for ending the headache of a migraine.〔 It is most effective when injected under the skin and when taken early after the start of the pain.
