Suminat 100mg is a prescription medication used primarily for the acute treatment of migraines with or without aura in adults. Its active ingredient, Sumatriptan, is a selective serotonin receptor agonist that helps reduce migraine symptoms by constricting blood vessels in the brain, effectively alleviating headache pain, nausea, and other migraine-related symptoms. Suminat 100mg provides rapid relief from a migraine attack, often within 30 minutes of administration.
