Side effects: | | The effect was slow. Approximately one or two hours before any significant pain relief was noticed. Also, some nausea from the drug. |
Comments: | | As soon as a migraine was detected a Frova would be administered. If the migraine was intercepted immediately the Frova was succesful with relieving pain and the chance of a rebound headache was slim. If a frova was not administered immediately a maxalt was taken then two hours afterwards a frova. This would eliminate pain for twenty four to thirty hours. On occasion a rebound headache would occur. |
