I get horrible headaches, and most medicines do not work. Any suggestions?

If your headaches are actually migraines, have you tried Zonisamide to keep them away? That's what I use and I know it works for me.

I too get migraines. I also use Zomig, my Zomig is in a nasal spray and works very well. When I first went on it it took 20mins to get rid of the migraine now it takes longer. About 2 hours. But that's ok as left untreated it goes on days. However I do get cluster headaches where I can wake up 3 or 4 mornings on the trot with a migraine. Zomig does the trick!

I take zomig 5mg for my migraines- it has been my saving grace for years. I hope this is helpful. I get migraines sometimes twice a week.

I tried Aleve today. 225 mg. I wake up and go to bed with headaches. The Aleve has seemed to help. But eventually it may become like Advil and everything else. I go get a massage Friday. You should look into it. Its costly, but worth it.
