I was put on this medication for migraines after amidirin was recalled and found it to not work very well. I also have had a number of side effects like swelling and vomiting. Not happy at all with this med.

My OB/GYN gave me a sample of this medicine for a severe PMS migrain that I had for 3 days. It did help take away the migrain, but it made me extremely anxtious. I did take it with food, but 4 hours late I threw up. I don't know if this was a side effect or not or just what I had for dinner. Next time I will only take one the first time instead of the prescribed 2 at first and 1 every hour ... Show Full Comment

I was taking this for a cluster migraine that started in my eyes that I had for 3 days. It eased up some but not like I thought it should. I was very disappointed in the effects. Just watch out what other medications you are on as this medication has it's limits. I would not recommend it for really severe migraines.

Today, November 17, 2007, is the first time that I have taken this medication, MigraTen. The PA in my Doctors' office had given it to me and mentioned that this is a new migraine medication that he thought I should use to see if it works any better than the medication that was previously prescribed to me. So I used it because I thought to myself "Why not"? This was a BIG MISTAKE!! ... Show Full Comment

So I used it because I thought to myself "Why not"? This was a BIG MISTAKE!!! After reading all of the possible side affects it has I believe that I have had one of the many side effects that is mentioned. I have noticed that my feet, legs, hand has gotten really swollen. I suspect that this is one of the many side effects that is possible to have. It has mentioned that one of the rare side effects is 'Inflammation of Skin caused by an Allergy'. It is very uncomfortable and itchy. I have taken an OTC allergy medication to try to reverse the reaction. I hope that if there is anyone else out there who does need this type of medication has a better experience with it than I did. Good Luck and I hope that all is well for everyone!! Thank you!!
