How Headset Tablet Works?
Sumatriptan selectively activates serotonin receptors to constrict dilated blood vessels in the brain. Naproxen inhibits prostaglandin production, reducing inflammation and pain signals. Together they provide comprehensive migraine relief by addressing both vascular and inflammatory components.
