What Causes Dizziness And Lack Of Focus After Taking Sumatriptan?
I have had bad pressure headaches in my head for a week now and they wont go away. Doctor gave me sumatriptan but they made me sick and ni pain killers work. I keep going dizzy and my sight goes funny. I cant concentrate on anything. What could this be?
This is a side effect of Sumatriptan and a problem reported by many. These may reflect an autonomic disturbance which is also likely to be responsible for the episodes of dizziness and syncope or inability to concentrate. If the symptoms continue, take medical assistance.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
