Hi Kim....I was a test patient for Imitrex (over 10 years ago) before it came on the market. As I have said before, I thought I'd died and gone to heaven!! It has never failed me, but this bout of headaches, it has. I find the only thing that works for me, as far as the night wake up call, is the injection. The nasal spray. unfortunately, just doesn't do it for me - not the 5mg or the 20mg. I find I don;t get a rebound from the injection, where I sometimes do from the tabs. A 50mg tablet will sometimes work for me, providing I catch the CH in it's first 5 minutes. I have taken more than I probably should at times, but I've been desperate, for instance when they kept coming every 8 hours for 48 hrs. Hope you find what works for you....judi
