A member asked:

Can you tell me if i could give my 11 yr old tramadol with imitrex (sumatriptan) for migraine?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

IMITREX (sumatriptan): Triptans are migraine specific so you give the medication (confirm the dose with your pediatrics) . You can combine this with nsaids like ibuprofen, Naproxen etc, opiates in general does not help migraine, and sometimes Imitrex (sumatriptan) itself is helpful.
