Can i take maxalt-mlt for a migraine if it expired 8 months ago (february 2013)?

Yes but may not work: You can try it, but it may have already lost its potency. Good luck and best wishes.

Expired meds have: A lingering effect but usually after 6 months there might not bee enough potency to help your migraine. Best to use non expired meds.

Maxalt (rizatriptan): Maxalt (rizatriptan) has a better pharmacological profile than sumatriptan. It is available both as an oral tablet and as an orally disintegrating tablet (wafer) that dissolves on the tongue and is swallowed with saliva. It is important to match the characteristics of a specific triptan with the patient's needs. Preferable fresh medications that provide a rapid onset of action and complete relief.
