I'm taking Naramig (Amerge) for half a year now. It's also a triptan, so the 'age limits' should be the similar as for Imitrex. Now, the leaflet in the first box I got stated: not recommended for males over 40, due to lack of experience. This first box probably been laying around in the pharmacy for some years! The newer leaflets (dated June 1997) say: should not be used for people under 18 or over 65, due to lack of experience.
It could well be that the 'male over 40 years limit' is quite outdated and newer data give a higher limit.
