sumatriptan: Sumatripan Injections probably saved my life. The only thing that works on my cluster headaches. The injections are expensive, but my doctor backed me up in my battle with my insurance company. Works in 15 minutes or less, major side effect that I have found is burning but, I'll take that rather than the headache.

Imitrex (sumatriptan): Only thing that works for clusters. Within 15 miniutes pain is gone. Thank Goodness for this medicine. Only wish you could take more than 2 doses in a 24 hour peroid.

sumatriptan: This drug is the only thing (apart from being knocked out)that works. Yes, the injections are expensive but what a life saver, never leave home without them!

Imitrex (sumatriptan): Imitrex is a wonderful drug for us Cluster Heads. I've not been without one on or about my person for the past 17 years. I'm sure that all of us cluster suffers only wish that they would work a lot faster (like the injectitons), but I am sooooo thankful for them in any form. A real "life saver".

Imitrex Statdose (sumatriptan): These injections are a God send for Clusterers. The ONLY drawback that I experienced was the expense which forbids me from using them on a regular basis...but the tablets are a good substitute... just takes much longer to work. The injections work almost instantly..
