Description

Zavzpret (zavegepant) is a prescription nasal spray used to treat adults with migraines with or without aura. The medication should not be used to prevent migraines.

Zavzpret is available in a 10 mg nasal spray.

Directions

Use Zavzpret nasal spray as directed.

The recommended dose is to inhale one spray in one nostril as needed. Do not use more than one dose in 24 hours. The safety of treating more than 8 migraines in a 30-day period has not been determined.

Using Zavzpret Nasal Spray

1. Blow your nose gently.
2. Take out one blister from the carton.
3. Take out the device from the blister.
4. Make sure the product has not expired. Properly discard if expired.
5. Hold the device upright by putting your thumb on the bottom of the plunger and two fingers on each side of the nozzle.
6. Close one nostril.
7. Insert spray nozzle into the open nostril as much as you can comfortably.
8. Keep your head level. Close your mouth. Slowly breathe in through your nose as you spray one time into the open nostril by pressing the plunger up with your thumb.
9. Take the device out of your nostril and take your finger off your other nostril. Keep your head level for 20 seconds while breathing gently in through your nose and out through your mouth. If you feel dripping from your nose, sniff gently so you don’t lose any of the dose.
