Rizatriptan Benzoate Orally Disintegrating Tablet: A Fast-Acting Solution for Migraine Relief

RIZONITIME 10 is a fast-acting medicine containing Rizatriptan Benzoate Orally Disintegrating Tablet as its active ingredient, formulated as orally disintegrating tablets (ODT) for rapid and reliable relief from acute migraine attacks. Rizatriptan is a selective serotonin receptor agonist (5-HT1B/1D receptor agonist) that works by narrowing dilated blood vessels in the brain and blocking pain pathways responsible for migraine headaches with or without aura. The orally disintegrating tablet form dissolves quickly in the mouth without the need for water, making RIZONITIME 10 especially convenient for patients experiencing nausea or vomiting during migraine episodes. This unique formulation ensures fast absorption and a quicker onset of action, providing timely relief from migraine pain and associated symptoms. Uses RIZONITIME 10 is designed primarily for the acute treatment of migraine headaches, effectively alleviating moderate to severe migraine pain and common symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, photophobia (sensitivity to light), and phonophobia (sensitivity to sound). It is suitable for adults and adolescents aged 12 years and above who have been diagnosed with migraine. Please note, RIZONITIME 10 is intended for managing migraine attacks once they start and is not used for preventing future migraines or reducing their frequency. Benefits RIZONITIME 10 offers several distinct advantages that make it a preferred choice for migraine sufferers: Rapid Relief: The orally disintegrating tablet dissolves instantly in the mouth, allowing faster absorption through the oral mucosa and quicker symptom relief compared to conventional tablets. Convenience on the Go: As no water is required, patients can easily take RIZONITIME 10 anytime and anywhere, even during sudden migraine attacks when nausea or vomiting may make swallowing difficult. Targeted Action: Rizatriptan selectively activates serotonin receptors involved in migraine pathways, helping to constrict blood vessels and reduce brain inflammation, effectively reducing headache intensity and associated symptoms. Improved Quality of Life: By quickly controlling migraine symptoms, RIZONITIME 10 enables patients to return to daily activities with less disruption and discomfort. Well-Tolerated: When taken as prescribed, RIZONITIME 10 is generally well tolerated, with a manageable side effect profile, enhancing patient compliance and satisfaction. Dosage For adults and adolescents (12 years and older), the recommended dose of RIZONITIME 10 is one 10 mg tablet taken at the onset of migraine symptoms. The tablet should be placed on the tongue where it dissolves without the need for water. If symptoms persist or return, a second dose may be taken after a minimum interval of 2 hours.
