I have been taking this Medication for a lil over a month now for Migraines. Before I started on this I was having Migraines 3-4 times a week. I still get them but not as often and not as bad. It does make you really tired, I recomend not taking it in the morning if you have to drive to work. Best to be taken at night before bed. Works great so far!

I take this med for migraine prevention and it has been working. I was getting migraines 3-4 x's per week before it. Now I get maybe 1 migraine a month. It does make you very tired so ask you Dr. if you can take it at night. That has worked best for me. My boyfriend takes it for high blood pressure and he does the same.

Has greatly reduced the number and intensity of my migraines. However, still get them about 2-3 a month and I pop about 3 Tylenol. Imitrex did not work for me and Maxalt makes me more nauseated.

I dont wake up in the middle of the night with a migraine. It has not done a whole lot if I get one during the day.
