What Is Tosymra and How Does It Work?

Tosymra is a nasal spray containing sumatriptan, a triptan medication that works by narrowing blood vessels around the brain and blocking pain signals to relieve migraine attacks. It's approved for the acute treatment of migraine with or without aura in adults; it is not approved to prevent migraines and is not used for cluster headaches. Tosymra uses a specialized delivery system designed to help the medication absorb quickly through the nasal lining.

Tosymra is not a controlled substance.

Manufacturer Savings Card vs. an Rx.com Cash Coupon

Tosymra's manufacturer may offer a savings card program through its official site, but programs like this are typically limited to patients with commercial insurance and generally exclude Medicare and Medicaid, with terms that vary and can change. If you're uninsured, on Medicare, or your card is declined at the pharmacy, an Rx.com cash coupon can be used instead at participating pharmacies. Enter your ZIP above to compare pharmacy prices near you.

Is There a Generic Alternative?

Tosymra's specific spray device and formulation do not have a direct, substitutable generic equivalent. However, generic sumatriptan is widely available in other forms, including tablets and a separately approved generic sumatriptan nasal spray that uses a different delivery device. Ask your prescriber whether one of these alternative forms could work for you, and compare pharmacy prices since they vary widely.

Safety Information

Tosymra should not be used by people with certain heart or blood vessel conditions, including a history of heart attack, stroke, uncontrolled high blood pressure, or ischemic bowel disease, because triptans can cause blood vessels to narrow. It's also contraindicated within 24 hours of using an ergotamine-containing medication or another triptan, and within 2 weeks of taking a monoamine oxidase (MAO)-A inhibitor. Combining Tosymra with certain antidepressants (SSRIs, SNRIs) can raise the risk of serotonin syndrome. Using triptans too often, generally 10 or more days a month, can lead to medication overuse headache. This isn't a complete list of warnings; talk with your doctor about your health history before starting Tosymra.
