Hello everyone,

I've been prescribed this for my menstrual migraine. I don't get migraines apart from when my period is due or on.

Has anyone any experience of using this for mensturual migraine, and how have you found it?

Thanks you.

Hi, I have been using Frovatriptan along with Naproxen to treat menstrual migraine for a few years now. It's very effective and usually gets rid of it with one dose. I hope you get on ok with it. I have had several different triptans in the past. I would say that this one makes me feel the least 'spaced out' although it can give you a bit of indigestion. Good luck :)
