Brief Answer:
Yes

Detailed Answer:
Hi there,

Yes, similar medications are available by prescription.

Dihydroergotamines are used to treat migraines.

Sumatriptan is a medication used for the treatment of a migraine and cluster headaches here in the USA.

The actual medication you are looking for does not appear to be available in the USA.

I hope this helps!!
