I have just read that in a study, 10 mg of melatonin, ingested daily before bed, have led to the complete break of a cluster cycle in 50% of episodic cluster sufferers. Has anyone tried melatonin? AS a prophylactic? Any side effects? 10 mg per night is a heavy dosage and might lead to sluggishness.
for me, fiorinal, coffee, and an imitrex nasal spray have been enough to break the episode after it starts, but i am wary about using imitrex too often.
