"I have tried nearly every available treatment for chronic migraine. I was getting so many, and then treating them individually, that I was getting 'rebound' head pain. It is an awful cycle. I was unsure how I was going to be able to continue working due to my severe migraines 10-15 days per month. After a battle with my insurance company, who made me try a myriad of seemingly unrelated medications, I was finally able to get Qulipta. I knew it worked because my neuro had given me a 2-week sample dose. Qulipta has changed my life. I get maybe 1-2 per month now, and they are so mild I can just carry on with my day. I have my life back - I no longer live in fear of a migraine ruining every event. They will warn you constipation is a main side effect. If you are already living a healthy lifestyle with lots of water, fiber, veggies - it should be mild enough."

"I’ve been suffering from chronic migraines for most of my life, and I used a sample from my doctor. Within a week, I was not getting any migraines. I was a little bit sleepy on it, so I took it at night instead of the morning, and there were no problems-migraine free for a month. I’m just miserable that my insurance doesn’t cover it."

"I have suffered from chronic migraines since I was a young girl. I tried several medications before my insurance agreed to cover Qulipta. I have been taking it for almost 3 months now and have not had one single migraine episode - none! There are times I get a slight headache, but it doesn’t last longer than an hour with no return. It’s amazing, and I am so grateful for this medication. No side effects either."

"I experienced head trauma as a small child. Hence, horrible migraines. I am now 61. I have been taking this medicine for almost two years. It has been a lifesaver. My insurance covered 80%, my secondary insurance covered the other 20%."

"This medication works, though my experience is it’s most effective starting with the 2nd hour up to hours (18 - 20). Starts reducing in strength after that time period. Willing to supply further comments and speak with patients using the same medication."

"It didn't work for me. My doctor prescribed 60 mg - perhaps I should have broken it into thirds. It made me very constipated and I just didn't feel well."

"I've had chronic migraines since I was 13 and headaches before 13 years old. I've been on MULTIPLE medications, some help but none really take them away. I got Qulipta prescribed to me (I take 60mg in the morning daily) and ever since I've been on it, they have improved so much. I'll occasionally get a headache but it's not like the others. I haven't had any side effects that are listed on the bottle or what your doctor tells you (but it might not be the same for you)."
