Is Imigran available in Doha?

Can any migraine-sufferer or member of the medical community tell me whether it is possible to get Imigran (Sumatriptan succinate) injections in Doha for treatment of migraine? I can't be the only expat who uses this medication. It's fairly expensive I know, but is it available? I'd appreciate any information. For the uninitiated, no it's not some dodgy narcotic, it's a vaso-constrictor.

I have been using Imigran Tablets....easily available in most of the Pharmacies. But its only for instant relief...works as a pain killer. Its not the cure. Better go for a doctor...I would recommend you the World Renowned Dr. Saadat, Consultant Neurology Department, Hamad General Hospital...he prescribed me a six weeks course and it really worked. Hope it helps you as well....Best of luck.

I'm not sure about the injections. 50 mg tablets are available at most, but not all, pharmacies. No Rx needed.
