How Does Imigran Nasal Spray 10mg and 20mg Work?

Imigran nasal spray 10mg and 20mg work by helping to relieve the pain and other symptoms of migraine. The active ingredient in Imigran nasal spray is sumatriptan, which is a type of medication known as a 5-HT1 receptor agonist. Sumatriptan works by binding to and stimulating 5-HT1 receptors, which are found in the blood vessels around the brain. This leads to the blood vessels narrowing (constricting), which helps to relieve the pain and other symptoms of migraine. Imigran nasal spray is used to treat migraine attacks with or without aura. It can be used at any stage of a migraine attack, but it is most effective if used at the first sign of a migraine.
