Relpax Coupon & Discounts

How do I take Relpax?

Relpax is administered in tablet form and is taken orally at the first sign(s) of the onset of a migraine headache. If your symptoms improve after taking the Relpax drug, but return after two hours, another dose may be taken. However, if the symptoms do not improve after taking the initial dose of Relpax, contact your doctor for additional Relpax patient assistance; do not take another dose unless approved by your physician.

What if I forget to take a dose of Relpax?

Because Relpax is taken only after migraine symptoms appear, and not on a prescribed schedule, missing a dose is unlikely. However, if you take a dose once your migraine has commenced and there is no improvement, do not take a second dose, but contact your doctor for instructions. When filling or refilling a Relpax prescription, use the Relpax coupon found on the FamilyWize website.

What happens if I overdose on Relpax?

In the event of an overdose, contact the Poison Control Center at 1-800-222-1222 for Relpax patient assistance. If the individual has stopped breathing or lost consciousness, contact Emergency Services at 911.
