Title: triptans
Post by 911please on Jul 8^th, 2004, 6:34pm

Maybe a fellow CH er can give me the rules on triptans. Obviously my doc know nothing other than here, here, here take these.
Can I use differant products day to day?
or what time frame should elapse before switching brands..?
I took Imi today. am I okay to keep using it tonight?

What happens when that runs out.. wait a day or two before using anything else?

any info help...

Thanks,

Doug..

If the zomig works for you, there is no other reason to use any other form of triptan, that is the bottom line. Do not use two different triptans within 24 hours of each other, that is playing with fire and it will kill you.

I agree with Thomas...

Find a one that works for you and stick with it.
