Title: Zomig (ZMT) users
Post by E-Double on Aug 30^th, 2005, 3:24pm

I found an interesting tidbit.

It really only concerns those who have PKU......

Quote:

Zolmitriptan is an oral, selective 5-hydroxytryptamine 1B/1D (5-HT 1B/1D ) receptor agonist, or triptan, for acute treatment of migraine attacks with or without aura. First launched in 1997, it is one of the second generation of triptan. It is available in tablet form, as a rapidly dissolving tablet that can be taken without water, and as a nasal spray.

People with migraines are often sensitive to artificial sweeteners, and should be aware that Zomig-ZMT (the dissolving tablet) contains aspartame. Additionally, Zomig-ZMT contains Phenylalanine.

The fact that you are adults reading through the internet shows that you are "ok" however I thought it was interesting. :)
