About Snapit Tablet

Snapit Tablet is used to prevent migraine symptoms such as headache, nausea, and vomiting. Migraine is a neurological condition which is characterised by an intense pulsating, throbbing, pounding, debilitating headache which usually occurs on one side of the head; however, it can occur on both sides or shift. Hormonal changes, stress, bright lights, loud sounds, and certain foods and drinks can trigger migraine headaches. 

Snapit Tablet is a combination of two drugs: Sumatriptan and Naproxen. Sumatriptan acts on the serotonin (5-HT) receptors located in the brain, thereby causing the narrowing of the brain's blood vessels, which in turn affects the blood flow patterns associated with headache. Naproxen is a painkiller which works by blocking the effect of chemical messengers that cause pain.  Thus, Snapit Tablet prevents symptoms of migraine-like headache, nausea and vomiting. 
 
You are advised to take Snapit Tablet as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects, such as dizziness, sleepiness, nausea, chest discomfort, dry mouth, irregular heartbeats, and heartburn. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently. 

Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Snapit Tablet should not be taken during the third trimester of pregnancy. Snapit Tablet may cause drowsiness and dizziness, so drive with caution. Snapit Tablet should not be given to children as safety and efficacy have not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol with Snapit Tablet as it could lead to increased drowsiness and dizziness. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medicines to rule out any side effects. 

Uses of Snapit Tablet

Treatment of Migraine

Directions for Use

• Snapit Tablet can be taken with or without food or as advised by a doctor.• It is advised to take Snapit Tablet exactly as prescribed by your doctor, following the recommended dosage and duration to get optimal results.• Swallow it as a whole with a glass of water. • Do not crush, chew, or break it.

Medicinal Benefits

Snapit Tablet is a combination of two drugs, Sumatriptan and Naproxen. Snapit Tablet is indicated for the acute treatment of migraine with or without aura. Sumatriptan is a serotonin receptor agonist that acts on the serotonin (5-HT) receptors located in the brain, which causes the narrowing of the brain's blood vessels, thereby affecting the blood flow patterns with a headache. Naproxen is a pain killer which works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that make other chemical prostaglandins. By blocking the effect of COX enzymes, fewer prostaglandins are produced, thereby reducing pain in migraine.
