Why is Frova prescribed?

Frova, with the generic name Frovatriptan, is used to manage symptoms of migraine headaches, often described as severe throbbing or pulsating headaches with associated nausea, as well as sound and light sensitivity.

What does it do?

Frovatriptan belongs to a class of medications called Selective Serotonin receptor agonists, which narrows the blood vessels on the brain, preventing pain signals to reach the brain, and halts the release of certain substances that causes the symptoms associated with migraine headaches.

How should I take it?

Frova is currently available as a 2.5mg tablet taken whole (not split, chewed, or crushed) by mouth with or without food.

The dosage strength and frequency depend on every patient’s condition and the doctor’s prescription. It is imperative that you do not self-medicate and only take this drug after consulting with your doctor or pharmacist to determine the best dosage and dosing schedule for the treatment of your condition.

What if I missed a dose?

The desired effects of prescribed medications will only be achieved if taken properly. As much as possible, strictly follow your doctor’s prescribed dosing schedule. However, if you miss a dose, take it immediately and adjust the time of your next dose depending on your doctor’s advice. Never take two doses at the same time just to make up for your missed dose.

What are the special precautions before taking Frova?
