    I have a combination of tension and migraine headaches. After trying topamax, imitrex and all sorts of pain medication with little relief I feel like this mediation has helped me. I don't have any of the side effects like drowsiness or unsteady gait and i works quickly. I can take it at work an never miss a beat. I definately rate it an A+

    Comment:
    Phrenilin has been very effective in treating my tension headaches. However, my former doctor(s) did not warn me that it could make me appear to be drunk or "high" (slurred speech, unsteady movements, impaired judgment), and this created a terrible situation for me at work, as I was unaware of these side effects (it's difficult to explain, but it's not like drinking -- you can ...

    Comment:
    I am allergic to all pain meds except plain Tylenol & this med. This med gives some relief to the tightness & pain in my neck & head when they strike, but does not help other types of pain. It does cause drowsiness & affects my level of alertness so I cannot take it when on the job or have to drive.
