Common Questions and Answers about Zomig and breastfeeding
zomig
or triptans are a class of medication and examples of triptans are sumatriptan (brand name imitrex), zomig, maxalt, axert... well those are just to name a few. And yes, they are migraine medication and you take them at the first signs of the migraine, the SS, and it will stop the SS as long as you take it at the very first signs that it is starting. You can get it prescribed by a neurologist or your family doctor. It is better to go to a neurologist instead of an eye doctor. But...
The problem of course is not this particular 1 time. I am constantly taking a mixture of syndol and zomig everyday to try and control the pain and addiction but the problem is getting out of hand.
Incidentally last year I was admitted into hospital for a few weeks by a neurologist to stop the syndol addiction and I had managed. I was having very little headaches once I got out and was only taking panadols when I felt headaches. I was also prescribed 30mg Amirol every night before I sleep.
I take Zomig (I get migraines about 3-5 times a year) and Zomig knocks it out. Ironically, Norco used to give me headaches and then unfortunately, I became accustomed to them and addicted to them...... Now I am on day 14 with no opiates and I am still not quite well, but better each day. I won't be touching those demonic yellow pills anymore. Fortunately, my pain level is manageable as well. Opiates cause rebound pain the same way rebound headaches work.
I wish you the best.
this sounds very much like severe migrain problems,i hope everything goes fine with the ct scan,keep us informed.
I have always struggled with migraines and now I am trying to get pregnant. Does anyone have experience with using Zomig or one of the other Triptan medications during pregnancy? What was your experience like? Tylenol is not working for me.
s not handy, 4-5 200mg ibuprofen. The Zomig is an oral disintegrating tablet, and works in less than 5 minutes. It does leave you feeling a tad spaced out, but I'll take that any day of the week compared to a frenzied/panicked trip to the ER (and the $2k subsequent bill). Xanax should also work, but you should can't take too much of it.
i have a good neuro sugeron but he dont see me except for my yearly mri, told me to see my neuro for headaches and a speacialist.i have a screw that i can feel and it gets sore. the zomig helps me to but it dont last long , the taste is still there when the headache comes back.ive had the nerve block shots in my neck,just made them worse.i have heard about a crainotomy headache im going to ask my neuro about .i get very moody and cant stand noise or light , it just makes it worse.
I have Headaches almost every day and Migraines about twice a week. Apo-Indomethacin and Pms-Sumatriptan was prescribed to me by my doctor. I am also on progesterin to help reduce the amount of headaches, I have been using nasal sprays as well. Month six, no change. Blood tests shows no diabetes, Thyroid, liver or kidney problems. I have been sleeping about 13-14 hours a day.
I had my periods las week and have had a head ache for several day finally took some migraine medication that I have taken before called zomig and this morning I woke up with these dots all over my body.
Should I be worried? I still do have this headache but its tolerable not like my full on migraines and I do feel drained.
