The nurse should instruct the client to take the sumatriptan as soon as they sense a migraine coming.

Sumatriptan is a prescription medication used to treat migraine and cluster headaches. It works by narrowing the serotonin receptors located on blood vessels in the brain. This helps to take away the headache. Sumatriptan tablets generally work within 30 to 60 minutes.

Sumatriptan isn't normally taken on a regular basis. Instead, it should only be taken as soon as the client feels the first sign of a coming migraine. Taking sumatriptan may increase the risk of having abnormal heart rhythm and heart attack.
