"I was told about this medicine by an older friend who had horrible, debilitating migraines all her life and was light and sound sensitive. I would lock myself in a room and hope for it to pass. I was prescribed Migranal. The active ingredient is actually a fungus. It has been around since ancient Roman times. (Look it up... pretty interesting.) Yes, the markup is somewhere between 250%, the insurance pays $4,500 for 8 bottles. Yes, there is 'No' generic, and the company that makes it is from France. Yes, if you take it incorrectly, you will taste it in your mouth and swallow it. Please read the instructions all the way! Take it in the first 5 minutes of a migraine, it will be less effective if it's a full-blown migraine. It takes my migraine away about 75%. No high (unless mixed with other drugs), no drowsy or lingering effects. I will continue to take it unless my insurance says no more. Important: stick to the dose and don't go over, as the toxic effects are dangerous, but it's not toxic at the correct dose."

"I have suffered with clusters for the last 20 years. Every time I've been prescribed something that works, the FDA finds a negative reason to stop production. Migranal seems to work really well, but the price is ridiculous! My pharmacist requests that I only get it at the end of the month due to his cost. Now my insurance cost on it is being raised. Go figure."

"I have suffered from cluster headaches for 7 years. My doctors have tried it all on me, then one day, I was administered this. A godsend after so many years of pain and emotional turmoil."
