Abstract
Zolmitriptan is one of seven triptans available to treat acute migraine attacks. The introduction of these selective serotonin receptor agonists almost 20 years ago has revolutionized acute migraine treatment. Triptans are now first line migraine drugs, and provide acute treatment that is well-tolerated, safe and effective. This commentary reviews the use of zolmitriptan and other triptans, discusses how to maximize their effect, and examines the controversies surrounding this class of medication such as medication-overuse headache, use in migraine aura or prodrome, pediatric use, and important drug interactions.
