"I take 30mg/day, and for the first time in thirty years, I'm able to stave off a headache with ibuprofen, which used to be completely ineffective. I'm taking my rescue meds very infrequently - maybe once every month or two - when I used to ration them. I'm waking up feeling rested almost every day for the first time in my life, as well."

"Qulipta has been a lifesaver for me. I had gotten to where I was having migraines pretty much every day. I couldn't stand the lights on or being outside. The pain was 8-10 on the pain scale. My doctor gave me a sample of Qulipta, and it worked within a couple of days. I now take it every day and very rarely have a migraine. Maybe twice a month is all. I can't say I have had any side effects while taking Qulipta. My insurance company has given me a hard time about taking it. In fact, they refused to pay for it. However, the company that makes Qulipta has been very good to me and has helped me continue to get the medication. Thank you for finally coming up with a product that works! I've tried so many medications as well as Botox injections, and nothing has worked until Qulipta!"

"I have found results really quickly but as my body adjusted I needed a higher dose. 60mg. I am very impressed. I was in pain daily and limited all activities just to prevent a migraine attack. This has become my new preventative. Only 3 weeks in though."

"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)."

"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."

"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."

"I've been using Qulipta for about 4 months now. It worked much better in the beginning but now, not so much. I take it first thing in the morning before getting out of bed. I am going to have to discontinue use because of the prohibitive cost. I am a senior on Medicare."

"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 didn't think I had migraines. I thought I had tension headaches, but Qulipta has changed my life. I used to get at least 3 headaches a week, and now I get maybe 3 a month. It's awesome."
