What is Rizact 10mg?
Rizact 10mg is Cipla’s standard-strength rizatriptan tablet, a generic of Maxalt 10 mg. Each tablet contains 10 mg of rizatriptan, the usual adult dose for stopping a migraine attack.
In head-to-head studies, rizatriptan 10 mg worked slightly faster than sumatriptan, with many people pain-free within 2 hours. It is a good choice when speed matters.
How Rizatriptan Works
During a migraine, blood vessels around the brain widen and nerves release inflammatory signals, including a protein called CGRP. Rizatriptan is a triptan: it stimulates serotonin receptors (5-HT1B and 5-HT1D) that narrow those vessels and switch off the release of pain signals.
Triptans treat a migraine that has already started — they do not prevent attacks. They work best taken early, while the headache is still mild, and they also ease the nausea and sensitivity to light and sound that come with a migraine. They do not help ordinary tension headaches.
How to Take Rizact 10mg
- Take one tablet with water at the first sign of migraine pain.
- If the migraine returns, take another tablet after at least 2 hours.
- No more than 30 mg (three tablets) in 24 hours.
- Do not use this strength if you take propranolol — use Rizact 5mg instead.

| Propranolol interaction | Yes — use 5 mg | No dose change |
Side Effects
Triptan side effects are usually brief, often lasting less than an hour.
Common and usually mild:
- Tingling, warmth or flushing
- Tightness or heaviness in the chest, throat, neck or jaw
- Drowsiness or dizziness
- Tiredness or weakness
- Dry mouth or nausea
Stop and get medical help right away if you have:
- Chest pain or pressure that is severe or does not go away, or pain spreading to the arm or jaw.
- Sudden weakness or numbness on one side, slurred speech or loss of vision.
- Severe stomach pain or bloody diarrhea.
- Agitation, hallucinations, fast heartbeat, fever, sweating and muscle twitching — possible serotonin syndrome, especially if you also take an antidepressant.
Who Should Not Take It
Do not use Rizact if you:
- Have coronary heart disease, angina, or have had a heart attack.
- Have had a stroke or mini-stroke (TIA), or have peripheral vascular disease.
- Have high blood pressure that is not controlled.
- Have hemiplegic migraine (weakness on one side) or migraine with brainstem aura.
- Have taken another triptan or an ergotamine medicine (such as Cafergot) in the last 24 hours.
- Have taken an MAO inhibitor antidepressant in the last 2 weeks.
- Have severe liver disease.
Talk to a doctor first if you:
- Have risk factors for heart disease — high cholesterol, diabetes, smoking, obesity, a family history, or you are a man over 40 or a woman past menopause. Your doctor may want to check your heart first.
- Take an SSRI or SNRI antidepressant (for example fluoxetine, sertraline, venlafaxine).
- Are pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Use pain relievers or triptans on 10 or more days a month — this can cause medication-overuse headache.
Please consult your doctor before using this medicine.
