For about 8 years now she takes Imitrex (sumatriptan) 100 mg pills. It works great for her. She feels it coming, pops the pill and it almost always prevents it. If she is late with the pill, she might take a short nap while it works if she is home. Its a limited drug on most plans, one pack of 9 each month. It is now generic though, so $10 on our plan.We've heard that some people get zonked out and can't stay awake with Imitrex, but my wife feels nothing but better. Not drowsy, spacey or dizzy she just loves it. That was the first thing the doc tried, so no experience with anything else.</blockquote>
