The restriction on dispensing only nine sumatriptan tablets per month is primarily due to concerns about medication overuse headaches and the risk of potential side effects from frequent use. Sumatriptan is a medication used to treat acute migraine attacks, and overuse can lead to reduced effectiveness and increased headache frequency. Limiting the number ensures patients use the medication responsibly and encourages them to seek further medical advice if migraines are frequent.
