I recently came across the BEST DAMM medication for migraine/cluster type headaches that i have ever seen in my life.BRIEF HISTORY/STORY! a friend of mine gets nailed with these headaches, no warning whatsoever prior to the onset...its almost like he is going into a convulsion.. curls up in a fetal position in a dark room if he's lucky and deal with it. Recently his doc gave him a script for MAXALT-MLT [rizatriptan benzoate]. you desolve them under your tounge. it worked within 15 minutes,slightly less. NO MORE MIGRAINE!!! this works better than any narcotic pain med. better than any benzodiazepine. the draw back is they are costly. 6 tablets = $96.00...talk to your doctor see what he says...good luck to all!!! Another item that works for me when i get a really nasty headache is available in Canada as a OTC medication is available at LONDON DRUGS is A.C.& C., Acetylsalicylic acid with caffeine and codeine. 200 tablets $19.95 canadian.
