Hi~
I've had migraines for over half of my
life. I used to have success with Imitrex.
Now, it seems like that doesn't work
anymore. Has this happened to others? What
would be a new medicine to try?

Do you see a neurologist for your
headaches or a general physician?
There are many migraine medications on the
market. They all work slightly different.
However, they all carry different risks.
Without knowing your medical background I
can't really suggest anything
specifically. I can tell you that I tried
many differnent ones until I found the one
that works for me. I am currently taking
axert and it works well for me.
After time your body can become resistant
to a medication that we have taken for
long periods of time. Which is probably
the case for you. So don't worry, you
probably just need a different medication
for the same relief you were perviously
getting.
