Since Botox stopped working for me, I have tried many, many preventatives and rescue meds. Luckily, Sumatriptan oral has always work for me when I need one. Preventatives, another story. I have tried Ajovy and Aimovig. Neither one works enough to stay with it. My Neuro gave me a sample of Nurtec today.

I have tried Ajovy and Aimovig. Neither one works enough to stay with it. My Neuro gave me a sample of Nurtec today. As I woke up "headachy" but not with a full migraine, I took the Zurtec after the appointment. My headache just got worse as the day went on. I would take a Sumatriptan now, but I don't think I should. I'll wait it out until morning. And so - the search goes on.

It did nothing as an abortive and nothing as a preventative. While there is a sub-population of migraineurs who get good results with the new CGRP meds, it must be noted that all of them perform very poorly in clinical trials -- barely beating placebo.

This drug has been a miracle for me. I have been getting migraines with aura and nausea for 15+ years. They are genetic and run in my family. With nurtec I am able to return to my daily functioning self with no pain in as little as 30 minutes. THANK YOU! I have experienced 0 side effects. I do not get a rush of needles sensation like I typically would from an Imitrex (Sumatriptan) injection. Also ... Show Full Comment

With nurtec I am able to return to my daily functioning self with no pain in as little as 30 minutes. THANK YOU! I have experienced 0 side effects. I do not get a rush of needles sensation like I typically would from an Imitrex (Sumatriptan) injection. Also imitrex is not always able to stop the pain. Nurtec has a very clean profile (no noticeable sensations or side effects) and can quickly stop the pain and lift the brain fog! I have been using it steadily for the past 8 months and it still continues to work.

Was skeptical but tried it. Does not work as promoted by celebrities. Should have known better, especially when Whoopie started to promote it.

Advil worked better than this. Seems this is one of those drugs that works really well for some folks, or not at all for others.
