I love this medicine! Before I would always worry about the next time I was going to get a headache. I couldn't work or play with my son, I hated it. But now if I get one I can just take my imitrex and 30 minutes later its gone like I never had a headache at all! The only thing I dont like is it is pricey, but I will pay because it works very well. Now that I have tried it, I couldn't live without it.

I started using Imitrex about two months ago. It does wonders for me. I take a short nap in a dark, quiet room after taking the medication and this helps a great deal. I have not had any side effects. I love it and recommend it!

the first few years i was prescribed imitrex i thought it was a miracle drug. now after ten years i find that i need to add excedrine migraine with it and i still have residual pain. still...it sure beats a full blown migraine.

Chronic Migraine sufferer, 2 to 3 a week.
Imitrex has been wonderful when I feel one coming on and
even when I have a full blown Migraine.
I am able to function normally within about a half hour.

This medication is by far the best migraine medicine that I have used. The only thing that works better is a trip to the ER and then you have to suffer for hours and hours waiting on the doctor and have an extremely high bill. IMITREX always works for me.

I'm 3.5 months pregnant and had been suffering from the worst migraine I'd ever experienced for 2 days. I finally went to urgent care as instructed by my OB. They gave me an injection of imitrex. The side effects suck. I felt dioriented and my head felt heavy. I was sweating. After about 20 minutes, the side effects subsided a bit and I was able to go. It is now 2 hours later and I feel 100 times better. My migraine is basically gone. If you can deal with the side effects, its worth it.
