A migraine is a type of headache that causes intense, throbbing pain usually on one side of the head. It’s often accompanied by nausea, sensitivity to light and sound, and visual disturbances (known as aura). Attacks can last for hours or even days.
Migraines affect around 1 in 7 people in the UK, with women being three times more likely to suffer than men. They often begin in adolescence or early adulthood and can occur occasionally or be chronic.
The exact cause of migraines is not fully understood, but it involves abnormal brain activity affecting nerve signals, chemicals, and blood vessels. Common triggers include stress, hormonal changes, lack of sleep, certain foods, alcohol, and sensory stimuli.
Press Pharmacy offers Triptans (e.g., Sumatriptan), which are specifically designed to treat migraines by narrowing blood vessels in the brain and blocking pain pathways. These are taken at the onset of symptoms for fast, targeted relief.
Triptans may cause dizziness, fatigue, tightness in the chest or throat, or tingling sensations. These side effects are usually short-lived. Triptans are not suitable for people with certain cardiovascular conditions — always complete the online consultation for safety screening.
Press Pharmacy offers reliable, clinically approved migraine treatments delivered to your door. Our easy online consultation is reviewed by UK prescribers, ensuring fast access to the right medication when you need it most.
