I have suffered for at least 7 years, having 1 to 2 a day,very intens pain. Doctors and consultants have failed to effect a long term cure. I have tried the full range of drugs etc, with little results.
Have suffered from high blood pressure and have taken anapril type pills to solve the problem with success. Stop using them some 18 months ago, but went to see my doc for check up, and BP was up again, 180/130. So this time she said we will try another type of pill !!
I was still suffering from clusters, but when I started this new pill, and belief it I have not had a session of clusters since ??? (3 months). I have past this infro on to the manufacturer, and hopfully you too may start a new life like me.
The trade name is APROVEL irbesartan.
Made by Sanofi Winthrop ltd UK.
+ 44 1483 505515
This I know has nothing to do with my BP, as other drugs have had no effect on the clusters, it must be something within the compound that has helped.
Hope this helps someone,as I do know the pain.
Perhaps you may forward your results.
