My husband gets really bad migraines so the doctor prescribed Imitrex. Tonight was his first time taking it, but it made it worse. Can he take Advil on top of the other medicine?
Is it OK to take both Advil and sumatriptan?

Hello, did he take just one Imitrex? The maximum is 2 in 24 hours. Taking with Advil should be ok but if the Imitrex makes headache worse you should not use it. You should read about Imitrex and how it works or ask your Dr or Pharmacist.

Thank you. He tried taking it again today and it did not seem to affect him like it did the first time. And yes he only took one
