Imitrex...(contradiction)

Ran across this today... From http://www.migrainehelp.com/?a=105
IMITREX is a prescription medicine for the acute treatment of migraine attacks, with or without aura, in adults. You should not take IMITREX if you have certain types of heart disease, a history of stroke or TIAs, peripheral vascular disease, Raynaud syndrome, or blood pressure that is uncontrolled. If you have risk factors for heart disease, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, or are a smoker, you should be evaluated by your doctor before taking IMITREX. Very rarely, certain people, even some without heart disease, have had serious heart-related problems when taking IMITREX.
If you are currently taking other medications or if you are pregnant, nursing, or thinking about becoming pregnant, you should talk to your doctor before taking IMITREX. If your headaches are not migraines, IMITREX is not for you.
This last statement kills me. Then, when you click this link http://us.gsk.com/products/assets/us_imitrex_injection.pdf on that same page, it goes on to say how significantly more CH patients gained relief at 10 or 15 minutes vs those who received the placebo...blah blah blah blah blah.
