Title: Insurance Co's Triptan Limitations
Post by chronic_chic on Jan 15^th, 2004, 9:59pm

Although this article deals primarily with triptans and migraines...it can apply to triptans and ANY headache type because triptans are used to treat a variety of headaches. Here is a link to some suggestions for what to do if your insurance company limits the amount of triptans you are given per month. I don't know if this will be helpful to anyone or not, but I just thought that I'd post it just in case someone out there finds it helpful!

Hey Gang! A good read.

The message: NEED to be assertive with your insurance company. Anger and bitching won't get you relief!
