I had to look up the meds you're taking because they are sold under different names in the US.
Meticorten = prednisone, Vasomil = verapamil, Isoptin = verapamil sustained release.
Anafranil is not sold in the US as a CH med, but since it is a 5-HT serotonin reuptake inhibitor, it's effects might be similar to Imitrex.
If your doctor hasn't already told you, the Meticorten probably should not be used long term. Also, Vasomil and Isoptin are the same thing; you should not take both.
Ulsanic is just for your ulcer.
