Maxalt Tablets also contain rizatriptan and are used for the acute treatment of migraine attacks. They are taken with water and work in the same way as Maxalt Melt, by reversing the widening of blood vessels in the brain and calming migraine-related nerve activity.

This helps relieve headache, sensitivity to light and sound, and other migraine symptoms. Maxalt is not for everyday use and should only be taken as prescribed when an attack occurs.

You can also buy quicker acting Maxalt Melt.
