I still have migraines on the Topamax as well but fewer than before and less severe I think. I have been taking it about 4 or 5 months 50 mgs. My main triggers are hormonal and stress. I have given...
My co-pay was not the problem, it was the insurance company limiting my triptan usage to 4 a month. Merck paid for my medication when I was uninsured, but now I am insured and have not tried applying...
I know there is no generic for Maxalt available in the US yet, but I have checked into buying from Canada and it is very reasonable. I have insurance, but United Healthcare only allows me to buy 4...
Count me in on this one too. I hate my job because of it. Of course without my job I would have no insurance but it would almost be worth it because I would probably have a lot less migraines....
I have Relpax, but have not tried it. I use Maxalt which works for me and the Relpax being just as expensive to buy I figured why stray from what I know works. I do have a friend that goes to the...
Perhaps I was already apathetic and that is why I didn't notice it, lol. It seems to have cut down my migraines, but I would like to keep the dose as low as possible. The neurologist said the goal is...
I have used Maxalt for about 9 years now and it still works for me. I hope you'll have good luck with the Relpax. Fingers crossed for you. I know there are women that use one of the triptans as a...
At first I felt anxious on the Topamax, but after a couple of weeks I felt really good. Probably better than I had in years which I thought was weird. I just figured maybe it was the fact that I...
Well I have not used Relpax although I have some samples. I have used Imitrex once and Maxalt is the triptan I prefer. For me however, I have used it only as abortive and it usually takes about 2...
How was it prescribed dosage wise as a preventative? I would imagine the cost would be very high depending on how it is used. I also thought you had to wean off topamax due to the risk of seizure...
I am 49 and started having migraines at 18. At first they were infrequent, maybe once yearly but would last 2 or 3 days. As I got older and into my 30's they became more hormonal and did not last as...
For me dilaudid gives me a headache, as well as hydrocodone. The only things I have found effective for migraine are triptans and toradol. I don't know what your Topamax dosage is and whether its for...
Did nothing for me and the taste is weird....
My two biggest triggers stress first and hormones second. Of course both are ard to avoid. Stress is a vicious circle. If I am under a lot of stress I start getting headaches which in turn panics me...
