For Migraine "With Treximet, I found relief was within an hour, and if I had a bad migraine and took a second one after one hour, it was gone. In the past, my severe migraines could last on and off for 3-5 days at its worst. Side effect is heartburn. I want to thank my pharmacist for telling me about the drug. I had to ask my doctor about it, and then she gave me a sample. I only wish the pill wasn't so big."

For Migraine "Knocked out my headache very quickly. I did have a few side effects such as a stiff neck, overall queasiness, and heartburn. The side effects didn't last more than an hour or so, but the headache was gone and I was happy. As with any medication, I will try and 'ride out' the headache to avoid taking medication, but I will keep this one around."

For Migraine "This is the only medication that has worked for me. I have taken it on three occasions, and it has gotten rid of my headache within 40 minutes. It's amazing. The only side effect I've had is a slight feeling of heartburn."

For Migraine "I love this medicine. It works! I too couldn't get it for a while because of how expensive it was. I was actually notified by Blue Cross that if I did a three-month trial of having my doctor write a script for the medications of Treximet separately (Imitrex pills and Naproxen pills) and see how those two separate medicines worked for my migraines, then if I still didn't get satisfactory results from these two medicines separately, then they would pay for the Treximet pills. I did the trial for three months, and I didn't get the instant results like the Treximet pills, also bad heartburn from the Naproxen. So I had my doctor report back to Blue Cross after the trial three-month period that I wasn't getting the results I wanted, and they started covering it."
