My dr. switched me from Imitrex to Epidrin because of my insurance company. Imitrex works GREAT. Epidrin doesn't make my headaches go away and I get the feeling that something is stuck between my throat and sternum after taking it - for about 2 hours. It makes me dizzy and sick to my stomach. I hate it.

So she prescribed Epidrin which I've taken twice now. It does help the heada ... Show Full Comment
