New to this site. I was taking neurontin 900 mgs daily for headaches every night--sometimes it works, sometimes no. Butal (fiorinal) helps but sometimes only after 5-6 doses. I went off the neurontin because I thought it was making my hair weak, brittle, and falling out. The Dr. disagreed but complied with my request. I am now on Paxil (new Migraine alternative off label medicine)-20 mgs per day and to try 30 if there is no relief and Still take the Butal when necessary.
Any experience with these drugs will be helpful.
Thanks to all
Mat
