Migrex (acetaminophen / dichloralphenazone / isometheptene mucate) "I’ve taken one pill a day and it stopped headache in about an hour but headache didn’t return for 24 hours. I was afraid to take migrex because company didn’t require prescription. I think it has different ingredients depending on the country it is from. Also, it contains Tylenol (under the chemical name acetaminophen). I took the drug because I have severe pain almost 3/4 of the month and I had such a horrid headache I wouldn’t have cared if migrex killed me. What a surprise! I have imitrex and am suppose to use sumatriptan stat and migrex long term. Odd company didn’t require prescription??? That makes me nervous."

Epidrin (acetaminophen / dichloralphenazone / isometheptene mucate) "Coping with photophobia and migraine with aura for over 20 years has been a disabling part of my life. I have been getting 40 injections every 10 weeks and this medication is the ONLY breakthrough medication that allows me to resume any daily activities during a migraine until my next course of treatment. Other medications have exacerbated my symptoms or added new side effects that make it intolerable. This has allowed me to live as normal a life as I can."

Epidrin (acetaminophen / dichloralphenazone / isometheptene mucate) "It felt like my head was spinning so bad that I would fall if I bent over. It seemed that every nerve in my body was on the edge like a full blown bad panic attack. It took an entire day after I took one Epidrin to come down off of the dizziness and stop feeling doped."

"The only thing that works for the complex migraines w/ vertigo and gastroparesis that I get as a result from a vagal nerve injury. Other migraine medications have caused heart complications, so this is it for me. It's terrifying whenever there's a shortage."

Midrin (acetaminophen / dichloralphenazone / isometheptene mucate) "This medicine is really good, though sometimes I need to take up to 5 of them for really persistent migraines. It is very affordable but sometimes I feel I need something other than the Elavil to really help."

"I take this medication along with Dramamine. I no longer experience the nausea that accompanies a migraine. My doctor also recommends 2 cans of Mountain Dew back to back as soon as I feel a headache coming on. It helps"

"So far this medicine has been working to relieve my headaches. I have not suffered from headaches previously, and this seems like a new thing to deal with, but the medicine works well, but does cause some "upset tummy" afterward. Still worth the headache relief."

"I have suffered from severe migraines for 30 years since a car wreck. Midrin is the only thing that works! Imitrex is a joke for me. I have tried Depakote, Inderall, Topamax, you name it! If I can't get Midrin, I guess I will be off to the ER! If you need case studies for the effectiveness of Midrin, here I am!!! No, the FDA doesn't care and would rather I suffer or pay ridiculous amounts of money for other drugs that do not work! I am irate!!!"

"I've been taking this for years. One use to be good enough to knock out my migraine for years. Now I need 2. It even works if I'm in the middle of a migraine attack although it takes 1 hour to kick in. "

"I have taken Midrin for years for migraines and it is the only thing I have found that really works. If I take 2 at the onset, it usually knocks out the pain. I rarely have to take more than 3 for a headache. I really love that it works so fast for me -- usually less than 30 minutes. Never leave home without it!"
