I've had migraines for a long time.
The best thing I've found for it was called "Duract", but they took it off the market because it caused liver problems. I also used to have the morphene nose spray, but they stopped making it because dumbasses kept killing themselves with it.
After duract the next best thing that has worked for me is
Excedrin Migraine, but it tears up my stomach and now I've got ulcers so I guess Execdrin works but depending on how often you get mirgraines prolly not a good long term solution.
A friend of mine takes Nuproxin Sodium (sp?) so I try using that sometimes. I didn't get the script for it, I just take a few
aleive. It works, but it takes a while to make it start to ease up, like over mins.
BC Powders can help if you're stuck in a jam and just need something to help you drive home, but they don't chase my migraine much. They wanted to put me on Topomax as a daily preventative, but I am always skittish about taking something daily as a preventative.
The worst thing I've taken was
Maxalt. Neurologist gave me some samples and I tried it and almost called an ambulence the pain got so bad.
There's also a shot that they've had to give me a few times, it's not imitrex though. I've had a few migraines that were so bad they went on for days / caused numbness in half my body, that's when I get the shot. Next time they give it to me I'll try to remember what it is. It's something they have to inject deep into tissue and it burns afterwards, but it works.
