does anybody know the chinese characters for Imitrex? Is there a generic form?

Imitrex is sold in China under the brand name imitrex.
It is also known as Imigran.
Sumatriptan succinate.

Can't help you with the symbols though.

Maybe you can transliterate it.

wow! that was fast! ;)
I will check with the "hospital" tomorrow, the chemical name of the compound may be more helpful than the brand name, but I will try both. when I showed the doc my Maxalt package and asked him if they had any, his enamored stare at the container immediately told me that I needed to go to Shanghai.
Additionally, I have noticed that O2 works for many, any side effects that I should be aware of before I partake?

O2 - no side effects, unless you smoke during use.
