Imitrex shots and pills. It's the only way to go.

Excedrin is the best, especially if it is a tension migraine. The Excedrin for tension works wonders. I tried Imitrex but I felt the Excedrin worked better, but what ***** with migraines is that they are different for everyone. Some medicines work for some and not others.

as soon as a get 1 symptom i take excedrin. My doctor told me onions can bring them on... I did not know that. Also an ice pack is good, I also drink some coffee sometimes that helps.

Imitrex.
If I have a migraine none of the over the counter stuff works- it's all the same to me.
If it's REALLY bad- I have to lay down in a dark room but sometimes it even gets worse to rest my head on a pillow.
