Headset Tablet
Headset Tablet Description
Headset tablet is used to treat headaches associated with migraines with or without warning signs. It is a combination medicine containing sumatriptan and naproxen. Sumatriptan works by narrowing the
blood vessels in the brain, which helps in getting relief from migraine headaches. Naproxen works by reducing pain and swelling by decreasing the synthesis of a natural substance called prostaglandin, which is responsible for swelling and pain. Nausea, dizziness, sleepiness, indigestion are a few side effects of the Headset tablet. These side effects normally go away with time but if you feel they persist, you should consult your doctor. Inform your doctor if you have any existing heart disease or stomach-intestinal disease, as this medicine may worsen the condition. Do not take the Headset tablet for a longer duration than that prescribed by your doctor.
