Hello Michelle-

Last year when I was in a cycle my Doctor gave
me the "unofficial" RX for both. He explained
to me that if I had a CH to use 1 Imitrex in-
jection. If I felt the headache coming back
4 to 6 hours later I could then take Amerge.

He said he "learned" this from a headache
Doctor at a conference he went to.

I have read where the 5-HT's aren't supposed
to be mixed. With Imitrex having such a short
half life I personally don't believe it should
make any difference.

Best of luck!! Phil
