That's what Imigran is too. For 4 tablets. I googled the wafers. I will definitely be asking to give them a try. How do you feel after you take them Astrolady? I usually have to wait for DH to get home before I take Imigran, because I feel so wasted, iykwim.
It depends on the day and probably the severity. But I am one of those people where panadol/nurofen does nothing for me pain relief wise. I can even function fine on Mersyndol night strength :/ So I can get on with my life after taking Maxalt, but someone else may be out to it. There has been some days where I feel a bit wasted after taking it, but it passes quickly. Well for me anyway

i actually take beta blockers for my migranes
i tried all the other treatments and beta blockers were the only relief i have found
they keep my blood vessles and hormones -'calm' if that makes sense. Its the fluctuations in my hormones that causes my migranes
I take 40mg twice a day and it makes an massive difference
i have gone from 4 migranes a month , and now i get a couple of dirty headaches a month instead
my OB actually got me onto the meds as they are safe to take when pg and bf which is a big trigger for my migranes as well

900mg of Asproclear helps at the first sign. If it doesn't work, then I resort to Zomig (prescription which has so far kicks in pretty quickly, there have only been a few occasions where I have had to have a second dose.
Chiro used to help, but doesn't any longer. I have been seeing a physio and massage therapist as mine tend to be related to tension in my upper back and neck which throws everything out.
OTC medication does zip for me these days (apart from the aspro clear if I get in quickly enough)
