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.

Nausea, dizziness, sleepiness, indigestion are 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.
