I'm a first time poster but a long time chronic sufferer. I used to get 2 to 5 headaches a week, every week for years. My Doc and Nero tried all the usual prescriptions and my best success came from Verapamil 240SR. Actually, it was my only success. For the past 6 months I've been on 240mg SR, twice a day, (mornings and evenings) and the HA have stopped completely. It takes about a week for the Verapamil to kick in so don't get discouraged. So far I've had no side effects at all. I still can’t drink alcohol without bringing on a HA, but that’s no big deal .
