For Migraine "It's quick acting, but painful, and it made me bruise and bleed a bit. It makes me feel nauseated, and I vomited once, a few minutes after use. It also made me feel sleepy, like my other migraine pills. This just acts quicker and makes you drowsy fast."

For Migraine "I am 53 and have suffered migraines since high school. Nothing I could administer myself has ever worked even the tiniest bit. After going to my doctor for a Toradol shot, he told me to try the Sumavel DosePro injection. He told me it was far from painless. The injection feels like being stung by a bee, but is tolerable because you eventually get used to it. It is far better than laying in bed for three days in the dark and vomiting. It bruises and sometimes causes slight bleeding, but even with that and the injection pain...totally worth it. The first time I had an injection, it took half an hour for relief, but now my headaches are gone in 5 minutes. It is a miracle drug for me. I love it. I pay $60 for a box of 6, and insurance pays $1,000."

For Migraine "Took the pain away in 15 min. The injection site bruises and bleeds. But still worth it. I felt the nausea associated with this medication for about the first 10 mins and extreme tiredness. Got it as a sample but will for sure fill the prescription. Most effective and fastest working migraine medicine so far."

For Migraine "I've suffered from migraines since I was in the 3rd grade, and I am now 23. I take Topamax every night to try and control my headaches, but when I get a really bad one, I use the Sumavel. HATE HATE HATE needles. So this works for me very well. There is pain with the injection, but compared to the migraine, it's nothing. A little bleeding at the site and always a bruise. I can instantly feel the medicine working in my body, and within 5-7 minutes, my migraine is gone. It's my miracle."
