Inderal (propranolol): After suffering with migraines 30 years, Inderol gave me a pain-free life! It was the best I've ever felt! However, after several wonderful months, I began to get so dehydrated that it caused intense migraines and E.R. visits for re-hydration. Had to stop taking it because of dehydration side effect. Beware of dehydration while taking this drug.

propranolol: I suffered 2 severe migraines every month. I was at my wits end trying to deal with them as all the medications had failed miserably. Propranolol was my last hope and thankfully it works beautifully. I truly feel as though I have my life back. I can plan events in advance and I no longer have to go to work with a migraine! Amazing!

InnoPran XL (propranolol): I have been on this medicine for about six years. My monthly migraines were debilitating, included vomiting for hours on end. I still get minor migraines, but I can still function and after a few hours, I am fine. To me, a wonder drug.

propranolol: It worked amazing on my migraines. I was able to go a year without the pain even though I wasn't on it but now along with the hassle to get things done my migraines are returning. With no health insurance ... This is truly an amazing drug.

Inderal (propranolol): This drug changed my life. Before Inderal I had headaches of some degree almost daily. Severe migraines 3-4 times monthly. I have been on a daily dosage of 2 capsules of 160 mg for about 4 years. No more migraines. I never had any side effects. It has truly given me my life back. My doctor started me on a lesser dosage initially, always monitoring blood pressure, any side effects, number/severity of headaches while gradually finding correct dosage that worked for me.

Inderal LA (propranolol): I was on propranolol for about 18 months and went from approximately 20 migraines a month to five. Unfortunately a side effect I developed was cough-variant asthma. Made several visits to the doctor regarding the cough and his suggested that it might be asthma and put me on a daily inhaler. I did some research as I did not want to take a drug to relieve a condition caused by another drug. The side effect was not listed on my propranolol literature, but I found it as a cause for cough-variant asthma. I had to switch to verapamil, which is not quite as effective for my headaches, but my cough is gone.

Inderal LA (propranolol): Before taking Inderal, I was on 300mg of Topamax daily, which was a miracle drug for me. It completely got rid of my headaches, however, the side affects of Topamax were hard. Now I've been using Inderal for months and have found it almost as effective as Topamax but with little side affects. I highly recommend it.

InnoPran XL (propranolol): I have been on this medication for the past 2 months and absolutely see a remarkable difference. I've gone from a headache a week to one slight one in 2 months.

propranolol: I've been on propranolol for several months now to treat my migraines. Before taking this medication I had several attacks per week, often had some headaches that would last for several days. I have now gone weeks without having a migraine. I've been on other drugs for migraines, and I'd highly recommend this medication.

propranolol: I suffered from Migraines with increasing frequency from about 6 years old. When I was about 14 I started to get them four or five times a month. At 15 I had a constant Migraine; I would black out and faint every time I stood up, I couldn't sleep or eat. At points I just wanted to die. It never went away and a long list of pain killers and other medications failed to work. Propranolol stops them almost completely. I still get them every couple of months, but that is not so much of a problem.
