Title: Cheapest Meds
Post by harlem on Aug 12^th, 2006, 11:05pm

Hey there-

It's been a couple of years (I think) since I have logged in, but unfortunately I have been slammed by two CH's in a ten hour period. Fuck. Anyhow, I am using old Immitrex vials and insulin syringes but I don't remember how much immitrex I should use? Does anyone know what the mininum amount is to get the desired and rapid effect? I have been using .2 units but I wonder if I could use less (which would be really very little). The stuff is EXPENSIVE. Also, over the past two years, aside from mood stabilizers (which I don't react well to), are there any new treatments I should know about?

Many thanks.

Hi harlem. If you're using the statdose, look over on the left for the imitrex tip.
As far as what's new Have a look at kudzu here:

Lots of new stuff. Verapamil, prednisone and oxygen come to mind.

Oxygen is the cheapest and seems to work faster too. Going natural seems to be the new one to try. Good luck!
