Thanks everyone for the advice. Thanks Doc
Greg for telling me about using half a pill.
I went ahead and took the other half. I will
take the whole pill now. I will also
ask my Doctor to raise the dose if the 240mg.
is not effective. I'm so glad that this drug
is available as a generic. 30 tabs were only
$11.59. I know with generics it can go 20%
either way but this was very affordable. I
can't imagine what brand name costs. I'd
bet around $100.00
I've not had a breakthrough headache yet
just lots of shadows and burning behind my
right eye and muscle tension.
Prune juice huh Hal? I've used that
on more than one occasion. I also take
Elavil. I personaly believe that this
drug works best on migraines and not clusters.
It does however help me sleep. Hey, where
is the Phillips Milk of Magnesia Lady? :)
Take care and thanks all//Phil C
