What is Treximet and how does it work?

It's the only migraine treatment to combine these 2 medicines–IMITREX (sumatriptan) and prescription–strength naproxen sodium (an NSAID) — in one tablet. So it works 2 ways. TREXIMET targets the nerves and blood vessels believed to trigger a migraine, and it relieves the inflammation that can cause migraine pain.

Treximet FAQs

You should always be informed about the medicines you take or are considering taking. To help you talk to your doctor about which migraine treatment is appropriate for you, we have provided this Q & A section to help you learn more about migraines and TREXIMET.

How Should I take Treximet?

Use Treximet exactly as it was prescribed for you. Follow the instructions on your prescription label.

Never use more than the recommended dose of Treximet. Overuse of migraine headache medicine can actually make your headaches worse. Tell your doctor if the medicine seems to stop working as well in treating your migraine attacks.

Take one (1) Treximet tablet as soon as you notice headache symptoms, or after an attack has already begun.

Do not crush, chew, or break the tablet. Swallow the pill whole.

You may take Treximet with or without food.

After taking a tablet: If your headache does not completely go away, or goes away and comes back, you may take a second tablet two (2) hours after the first.

You must wait at least 2 hours before taking a second tablet. Do not take more than 2 Treximet tablets in 24 hours. If your symptoms have not improved, contact your doctor before taking any more tablets.

What is RT Technology?

RT Technology is an innovative way of putting medicines in tablets, which enables the sumatriptan component to dissolve quickly after swallowing. The relationship between dissolution and effectiveness has not been established.
