No, it does not. Sumatriptan is an anti-migraine medication which acts on blood vessels to abort a migraine before it's set in. There are pills available which combine a triptan with an ant-iinflammatory medication, but sumatriptan itself does not have any known anti-inflammatory effects.

I'm going to try to fight back the urge to patronize you, but no promises. If you had looked up "sumatriptan" before formulating this question (why you wouldn't have done the easier of the two first I don't understand), you would see that it is a specific chemical compound, as is caffeine. Asking if one compound contains another is like asking if water contains benzene, or if oxygen contains sulfur. In short, no. Do your homework next time.

Can you mix Ambien with sumatriptan?

Sumatriptan is a commonly prescribed migraine medication. The most common active ingredient in medications for migraines is caffeine. However this medication does not contain caffeine. In conjunction with Acetaminophen (Tylenol) it should be fine. However do not consume the maximum of 4000mg of Acetaminophen in one day while taking Sumatriptan. It is advisable to only take around 2000mg (approximately 4 tablets of extra strength Tylenol) in one day while taking a prescribed migraine medication. This is due to the toxicity that can be caused in the hepatic system (liver, kidneys, and bladder).
