I took Cafergot for years Testy for my ch's, until my doctor said he was concerned about the amount he was prescribing of what he thought was a highly dangerous drug (ie risk of gangrene in fingers and toes). At his suggestion I swapped to Imigran - which worked quicker to abort an attack with none of the nasty side effects. I now use Imigran tabs and nasal sprays with 02.
Hope this helps.
Wishing you all PFDAN
