"Maxalt works great for my migraines. Also, I had trouble swallowing, and the Maxalt dissolves on the tongue, which is great for me. My pharmacist had to try and find another company that makes pills that would dissolve on the tongue. My insurance stopped paying for the Maxalt, and I could not afford to buy them."

"I've had mean migraines since I was 5, I'm 42 now. I have also suffered a severe brain injury almost 5 years ago. I've tried every migraine medication. Maxalt did nothing for me. Migranol (DHE) nasal spray did before, and the shots work, and the sumatriptan 6.5 shots, vials, or auto-injections work. Once you have experienced those, nothing will work."

"Just took some for the first time 10 minutes ago, and my migraine is already subsiding. Helps a lot more to put it under your tongue so it'll go into your bloodstream quicker."

"Maxalt-MLT works great. Gets rid of migraine within an hour. Tried the generic form but only reduced pain by half, plus migraine comes back within a few hours. Also, side effects much worse."

"I would always have to go to doctors or the hospital for treatment of my migraines. Until a doctor prescribed these. They changed my life. I haven't needed to see a doc for migraines in 4 years."

"Very effective with no side effects (i.e., drowsiness). I've had mixed luck with other migraine medicines, but find Maxalt-MLT to be consistently helpful."

"Found this to work. Sometimes I get headaches for three days that just won’t pass, this ends them. Sometimes feel a little nauseous after, but not for long. This works for me."

"This works wonders for me, but makes me a little nutty for a while. Better than migraines by a long shot. They try to make it taste minty, but it's still a little foul-tasting."

"Maxalt MLT has been the best migraine medicine for me for almost 30 years and I took it during six pregnancies without any complications. I am only sorry insurance will allow 9 a month :..("

"Works within minutes, usually. Have not noted any side effects with it, although I do not care for the taste. After it melts and is gone, I drink water to get the taste out of my mouth."

"Miracle medicine! Only thing that helps my migraines and within minutes. Insurance won't cover, so will have to find an alternative. If your insurance covers it, it is well worth it!"

"I had used Maxalt when it was relatively new, and although it is quick to make short work of migraines, it did cause me rebound headaches 80% of the time, which were never as bad, but still no fun."

"Aside from a slight burning sensation where my migraine is located, this drug works wonderfully. Better than any nasal spray or OTC drug I've ever tried."

"Can't find Maxalt-MLT at any pharmacy. What is going on with it? Migraines last up to 14 days without it. Desperate!"

"Helps a lot! The pressure, pain, and other symptoms are treated when I have a migraine come on or experiencing a migraine. I don't notice many side effects like most drugs."
