My last Migraine lasted 5 days. Because I do not like the way narcotics make me feel, and few of them help enough to be worth the side effects, I usually have just gone to bed, taking over the counter sleep meds and lots of Excedrin praying no one would flip on the lights without thinking!

Thhis works 90 per cent of the time, as long as you take it as soon as you feel the headache coming. Only thing, you will test for abnormal liver enzymes, I tested for years and no one ever said that the meds were doing it. The retested over and over and ran different blood work, the last thing they wanted to do was a liver biopsy!! Now, I am trying to, after ten years, to try something different! Magnesium, B-12 and COQenzyme is supposed to prevent migraines. Hope it will work!

If I take it just as I feel my neck beginning to burn and tense up I never get a migraine, however once the migraine is onset it's to late for the medication. it has no effect.

I have be given many different combination of medications from other pain meds., prednisone, topamax,neurontin, mirgarin prevntative, this seems to be the only mediction that has helped me through the years deal with problems with migrains. I is not always perfect, but it has helped more that anything else I have tried.

I was given this in order to manage the pain of frequent migraines. To be honest, I felt no difference after taking it than before taking it. Even when taking two tablets I felt no difference. Though my past experience with all migraine medications has been unsuccessful, having none to date that have ever given any relief.
