Important Safety Information
FROVAŽ (frovatriptan succinate) is a triptan medication used to treat migraine headaches in adults. Only your doctor can decide if FROVA is right for you. Do not use FROVA if you have uncontrolled high blood pressure; have heart disease or a history of heart disease; have had a stroke; have circulation (blood flow) problems; or have hemiplegic or basilar migraine (if you are not sure about this, ask your doctor).
Cases of a potentially life-threatening serotonin syndrome have been reported with the use of triptan medications, including FROVA. Talk to your doctor before taking FROVA if you take selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), two types of drugs for depression and other disorders. If you experience symptoms of serotonin syndrome, which may include mental status changes, rapid heartbeat, lack of coordination or muscle weakness, and/or gastrointestinal symptoms, contact your doctor or healthcare professional immediately.
Do not take FROVA if you have an allergic reaction to the tablet or within 24 hours of taking any triptans or ergotamine medications. The most common side effects associated with the use of FROVA are dizziness, tiredness, feeling of tingling, hot flashes, headache (other than migraine headache), dry mouth, hot or cold sensation, pain in joints or bones, chest pain, and indigestion.
