How to use Sumaself Nasal Spray

Use this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Insert the bottle tip into one nostril and close the other nostril. Direct the spray towards the sides of your nostril, away from the cartilage dividing the two sides of your nose. As you spray, breath gently and keep the head upright. Repeat the same process for the other nostrils.

How Sumaself Nasal Spray works

Migraine headaches are thought to result from the dilatation (swelling) of blood vessels in the head. Sumaself 20% Nasal Spray works by constricting (narrowing) the blood vessels in the head, stops transmission of pain signals to the brain, and blocks the release of chemicals that cause nausea and other migraine symptoms. This relieves the migraine attack.

What triggers migraine attacks?

Migraine may be triggered by several factors. Some of the common triggers are caffeine withdrawal, changes in hormone levels during menstruation or with the use of birth control pills. Migraine also gets triggered with changes in sleep patterns, such as not getting enough sleep, drinking alcohol, missing meals, or smoking. Rigorous exercise or other physical stress, loud noises or bright lights, odors or perfumes, or exposure to smoke and stress and anxiety may also act as a trigger.

I have been prescribed Sumaself 20% Nasal Spray. Can I take other migraine medicines, similar to Sumaself 20% Nasal Spray, with it?

Sumaself 20% Nasal Spray belongs to a family of tryptamine-based drugs called Triptans. You should not take another triptan along with Sumaself 20% Nasal Spray. Taking two triptans together may trigger a heart attack and may also result in an increase in blood pressure.

It may include visual problems, such as seeing flashing lights, zig-zag patterns or blind spots, numbness, dizziness, or a tingling sensation like pins and needles, or feeling off balance. You may also have difficulty speaking and loss of consciousness, although this is unusual.

Can I take Sumaself 20% Nasal Spray with propranolol?

Yes, you can take propranolol and Sumaself 20% Nasal Spray together. However, since Propranolol may cause an increase in levels of Sumaself 20% Nasal Spray, so you should take 5 mg dose of Sumaself 20% Nasal Spray and not 10 mg.
