Question:
Will all migrane medicines such as Imitrex cause problems?
I'm currently using Imitrex for my migranes and for the most part, it works. However, I experience side effects that include tightening of the chest and throat and shortness of breath. Because of these, I don't want to continue using Imitrex, but I'm afraid I'll have to put up with my migranes for days because over the counter drugs don't work. Are there any other migrane prescriptions similar to Imitrex that don't have the side effects that I'm experiencing?
Answers:
ABSOLUTELY! Get off that crap, NOW! I know personally, first-hand what it's like to suffer with that crap, and so does my mother. Take calcium and magnesium pills. Your body is craving these essential vitamins and minerals! A B-complex helps tremendously (over time) too. And head on is great! ~N
