| | |
| ===Dosing Information===
| |
| | |
| The recommended dose is a single tablet of FROVA (frovatriptan 2.5 mg) taken orally with fluids.
| |
| | |
| If the migraine recurs after initial relief, a second tablet may be taken, providing there is an interval of at least 2 hours between doses. The total daily dose of FROVA should not exceed 3 tablets (3 x 2.5 mg per 24 hour period).
| |
| | |
| There is no evidence that a second dose of FROVA is effective in patients who do not respond to a first dose of the drug for the same headache.
| |
| | |
| The safety of treating an average of more than 4 migraine attacks in a 30-day period has not been established.<ref name="dailymed.nlm.nih.gov">{{Cite web | last = | first = | title = FROVA (FROVATRIPTAN SUCCINATE) TABLET, FILM COATED [ENDO PHARMACEUTICALS INC.] | url = http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=c0703630-9ce8-4259-841e-71fd2019fa66 | publisher = | date = | accessdate = }}</ref>
