I've been getting clusters for about 12 years and haven't found anything that helps until a recent trip to Argentina. While in Argentina I started getting the cluster headaches and didn't have anything to treat them with. Down there everything is over the counter. I explained to the pharmicist my condiction and he gave me Jaquedryl made by Park-Davis. My next headache I took one pill and the pain was gone within 20 minutes. I have had about 8 headaches since i receive the Jaquedryl and it worked everytime with in 20 minutes. A pack of 10 pills cost about 2.50 US dollars. As all sufferers know I would of piad hundreds to get these results. I just returned and haven't been able to find out if its available in the states. I bought 50 pills that are good until 2005. Here are the ingredents in spanish: tarato de ergotamina 1mg; citrato de cafeina 100 mg; clorhidrato de difenhidramina 25 mg.

I don't speak a word of Spanish, but it looks like
Cafergot + Benadryl. (Ergot + Caffine + Benadryl) so it would make sense that it works for you.
Be careful, Cafergot can do some really nasty things to your circulation if taken for extended periods.

Being the bohunk I am, I just e-mailed Novartis to see if they still produce it.
Hint - Take that tab of cafergot and strap on the O2 mask. It was my treatment of choice last go round.

I HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFULLY TREATED WITH A COMBO OF SANSERT AND VERAPAMIL FOR SEVERAL YEARS NOW ONLY TO FIND OUT WHEN I GO TO GET MY SANSERT REFILLED THAT THE COMPANY THAT MAKES IT.... WELL, STOPPED MAKING IT.
SO NOW I AM GETTING THESE AWFULL THINGS AGAIN AND ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT THEY ALSO TOOK CAFFERGOT OFF THE MARKET TOO.
WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE.. ARE THEY TRYING TO KILL ME... i DONT GET IT... THEY TAKE AWAY THE PREVENTATIVE AND THE ABORTIVE..... WHAT THE F%!#
WHY DID THEY TAKE SANSERT & CAFFERGOT OFF THE MARKET
I HAVE TRIED ALMOST EVERYTHING ELSE AND THESE ARE THE ONLY THINGS THAT HAVE WORKED FOR ME. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
DOC IS NOW TRYING TOPAMAX. SO FAR, NOT WORKING. IT IS MESSING WITH THE SCHEDULE OF THE CHS SO MAYBE I JUST NEED TO GIVE IT MORE TIME/ MORE DOSE.
AS FAR AS THE TOPAMAX MAKING ME STUPID I AM ALREADY STUPID SO THATS NOT AN ISSUE SO IF IT WORKS I CAN LIVE WITH IT.

Got this from Novartis. They don't say anything about the tabs:
Thank you for your interest in Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation.
Cafergot suppositories are currently on backorder status; however, the situation is in the process of being resolved. Please have your pharmacy contact their wholesaler to attempt to obtain an emergency drop shipment through our Customer Service Department.
