What are the side effects of using imitrex (sumatriptan) everyday?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not ideal: Imitrex (sumatriptan) is not supposed to be used for routine use, it is not prevention of migraines nor supposed to be used daily. It narrows blood vessels to treat the migraines and can have affects on circulation, there are better options to look at prevention.
