About Headset Tablet

Headset Tablet is used to prevent migraine symptoms such as headache, nausea, and vomiting. A migraine is a severe headache that usually affects one side of the head, but it can also affect both sides or move around.

Headset Tablet contains Sumatriptan and Naproxen sodium. Sumatriptan constricts the blood vessels in the brain and alters the blood flow patterns associated with headaches. Naproxen sodium works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger responsible for pain/inflammation.

In some cases, you may experience side effects, such as dizziness, sleepiness, chest discomfort, dry mouth, irregular heartbeats, and heartburn. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention. However, talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently

Inform your doctor before taking Headset Tablet if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Headset Tablet should not be taken during the third trimester of pregnancy. Headset Tablet can increase the risk of fatal heart attack or stroke, gastrointestinal bleeding, ulceration, and perforation of the stomach and intestines.

Directions for Use

  • Headset Tablet can be taken with or without food, or as a doctor advises.
  • Follow your doctor's instructions regarding dosage and timing for optimal results.
  • Swallow Headset Tablet as a whole with a glass of water.
  • Do not crush, chew, or break it.

Medicinal Benefits

  • Headset Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Sumatriptan and Naproxen Sodium. It is primarily used for the acute treatment of migraine attacks, with or without aura.
  • Sumatriptan is a serotonin receptor agonist that acts on 5-HT receptors in the brain. It works by narrowing the dilated blood vessels in the brain, helping to relieve headache and associated migraine symptoms.
  • Naproxen Sodium is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that helps reduce pain and inflammation. It works by blocking cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes, which in turn reduces the production of prostaglandins (PGs), chemicals responsible for pain and swelling.
  • The combination provides faster relief from migraine pain and associated symptoms such as nausea, light sensitivity, and sound sensitivity.
  • It helps restore normal functioning by effectively targeting both pain and vascular changes linked with migraine.

How Headset Tablet Works

Headset Tablet is a combination of two drugs: Sumatriptan and Naproxen sodium. Sumatriptan acts on the serotonin (5-HT) receptors in the brain, thereby causing the narrowing of the brain's blood vessels and affecting the blood flow patterns associated with headaches. Naproxen sodium is a painkiller that works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) and prostaglandins (PG) responsible for pain/inflammation. Thus, Headset Tablet prevents symptoms of migraine.

FAQs

Headset Tablet is used to prevent migraine symptoms, such as headache, nausea, and vomiting.

Headset Tablet contains Sumatriptan and Naproxen sodium. Sumatriptan acts on the serotonin (5-HT) receptors located in the brain; this causes narrowing of the blood vessels in the brain, and also affects the blood flow patterns associated with headache. Naproxen sodium works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that make another chemical, prostaglandins (PG). By blocking the effect of COX enzymes, fewer PGs are produced, which reduces mild to moderate pain.
