Rizact 5 mg is a prescription medicine that falls into the category of drugs known as Triptans. It is available for the acute treatment of migraine in adults and children 6 to 17 years of age. The active ingredient Rizatriptan narrows the blood vessels around the brain and relieves headache by reducing the substances that trigger pain, vomiting, nausea sensitivity to light and sound. The medicine will not treat a headache that has already begun, neither it prevents headaches or reduces the number of episodes.
