I've had migraines since I was a child. Ive been taking imitrex for 13 years but recently I've been having migraines every other day for the past few months. My new neurologist recommended I try cambia because I was getting rebound headaches from taking too much imitrex. For a minor headache it will get rid or minimize it. For bed bound migraines it sometimes takes the edge off but never r
