I have had 6 or 7yrs. experience with verapamil.The following is what i've noted [1]In my free period between clusters I take 240mg of verapamil & the free periods extended ie from 6mo. to8mo. & my last free period was 13mo.[2] A an expt. one free period I did not take anything &the cluster arrived in 6mo. This last cluster after surviving on cafergot & oxygen for 6wks. I upped my verapamil to 360mg & within 5 days the headaches were either masked or gone.My normal duration is 6wks.It is helpfull getting all this info.
