Frovatriptan Succinate is a triptan medication used for the acute treatment of migraine attacks. It is a selective serotonin receptor agonist (5-HT_1B/1D) that helps alleviate migraine symptoms by constricting dilated blood vessels in the brain and reducing inflammation. It is particularly effective for migraines with or without aura and is known for its longer duration of action compared to some other triptans.
