Imitrex spary, administer which side?
Aug 12th, 2008 at 8:21pm
 
Since this cycle seems to be bringing on fast hits, my doc just switched me to imitrex spray. I am having left sided attacks, and I was just wondering which side you guys are having success administering the spray on, your cluster side, other side, or it doesn't matter.

If I wake up tonight chances are real good I will have a swollen left nostril Wink.

Not only that, but I feel the sonuvabitch working in my jaw right now. So hopefully I get a REAL quick reply Wink

Thanks.

I just spray it in whichever nostril is clear and available.  Doesn't really make a difference which side you use.  At least that is how it is for my ch and migraines.
