For Migraine "This is a miracle pill. Migraines used to ruin my life. I couldn't go out with friends or enjoy life. I would be out of work. I take this pill, and within 45 minutes, I am feeling great. I even get this feeling of euphoria. I'm just thrilled my pain is over! I never have a side effect with this medication other than being a little sleepy, which I definitely don't mind at all. I have taken many other migraine pills, and this, by far, has the least side effects and works the best. I am so happy I found this pill."

For Migraine "Of all the migraine medicines I have taken, Relpax has worked the best for me. The side effects are less for me than Imitrex was. Maxalt made me sleepy and didn't always work. Imitrex didn't always work either. The only reason Relpax gets a 9 instead of 10 is because it is so expensive."

For Migraine "I've had migraines for the last 10 years. Relpax is the 2nd prescription I've tried. Two hours after the 1st dose, my migraine was no longer in the usual cluster location, my entire brain was ready to explode. As directed, I took the 2nd dose. After 8 hours, I finally felt better in that I could function again. 24 hours later, I'm still 'foggy,' sleepy, and have had several rebound headaches. I will not take this drug again."

For Migraine "I've only used Relpax 3 times, and it worked so well. It did make me sleepy, but I had to lie down anyway because I can't function with a migraine. I slept for 1 1/2 hours and woke up headache-free!"
