I have been on Sansert (2mg 4 x's a day)since the middle of OCT 99 for clusters. Initially, it didn't completely get rid of the headache. I felt the pressure (behind the eye), without the pain. Kinda like a dentist pulling a tooth (preasure without pain). Then my doctor added a drug called "Covera-HS", 240mg taken at bedtime. After about 3 days I felt no more pain nor preasure. I've been on both Sansert and Covera since the beginning of Nov. 99. The only side effect I have experienced has been weight gain. One side note: For 3 or 4 days during December, I started taking Vitamin E. On the 2nd and 3rd third day I started feeling the eye preasure that preludes the cluster, so I stopped the Vitamin E. The preasure behind the eye stopped the next morning. I then realized that my clusters had started about 2 weeks after I bought that bottle of Vitamin E back in September. Maybe a coincindence, but I thought maybe worth sharing.
