My last cycle was Nov. & Dec. 1999, and my neuro put me on Amerge 2.5mg twice a day, to be used as a preventative. It has a long half-shelf life, and the only HAs I got during that time, were close to the next dosage (every twelve hours). It is thought to be a gentler, longer acting triptan, similar to Imitrex, but with less side affects. Imitrex did nothing for my HAs and I felt sick from the medicine, however, I didn't experience any side affects from Amerge.
Good Luck
