They help with Imitrex a box a month. But it's a start.
If you qualify for the program. You get your first box
at pharm as soon as they say go then 30 day later they will
send you 3 months (3 boxes 5 vials) at once. but then you
have to have them under control.  Because it will be 3
months before they send you more again.

Good luck - It's helping me a little - is better than nuttin!

As for the Exp. ones I have been using Exp. 2004
Worked - I would have to say it took a bit longer but
worked.  we'er 2010 what's that 6 years expired.  One
year is fresh.  Use it like it was new.    Wink



Hey  CHsupporter:  Didn't read page one by chance? 
Just curious, cause you mention reading the board for years.  No harm, just my silly humor.  Wink 

Peace,
Boski

I get a bout of cluster migraines about every year or so. I stopped using the imitrex years ago due to the rebound headaches. I believe the imitrex also prolonged the duration of the bouts in my experience. I have found a relatively cheap solution to lessen the severity and duration. I get the bronkaid tablets usually found at convenience stores. These contain ephedrine which is a vasoconstrictor. I have had much better luck using these to lessen the duration of the CH and severity.
