For migraine relief, the typical dosage of Naratriptan is 2.5 mg to be taken at the onset of a migraine. If needed, a second dose can be taken after 4 hours, with a maximum of 5 mg in a 24-hour period. The effects of Naratriptan can last up to 24 hours. If you experience prolonged chest pain, a fast or irregular heartbeat, or shortness of breath after taking Naratriptan, seek medical help immediately.

Each Naratriptan tablet contains 2.5 mg of naratriptan as the active ingredient. Other components include lactose monohydrate, microcrystalline cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, and magnesium stearate.

Common side effects of Naratriptan may include dizziness, drowsiness, and dry mouth. Serious side effects that require immediate medical attention include chest pain, signs of a stroke (such as sudden dizziness or severe headache), or vision changes.
