the drug you are referring to is an over the counter non-steroidal anit-inflammatory much the same as naproxem sodium (aleve, anaprox, naprosyn etc.) and ibuprofen are. When i was first diagnosed with "cluster migraines" i was prescribed anaprox, which i believe is now an over the counter drug in the u.s. known as aleve. It worked great for about 2 cycles, including one that lasted about 5 months. At onset i would pop in a couple of anaprox and boom, 10 minutes later the sucker died. Unfortunately it stopped working, which is not unusual for ch sufferers. Some people just might benefit from this class of drugs.
