Works great for Migraines.

Really is a miracle drug, to me! Injection form gave me intolerable feelings of dizziness and heaviness. Nasal form is working fine now.
Working / Worked
if taken early enough the nasal spray usually helps, if not then I must resort to the injectible form which has the undesirable effects of heart racing, etc.
Working / Worked
But I got terrible reactions from the medication- dizziness, and nausea. so instead of headaches I was throwing up.

Worked in the beginning they have given me the sprays for when my daily medication doesn't work. These nasal sprays work quite quickly but have a very bad taste afterwards when you swallow.
