Hi. I've been suffering from from migraines for the 5 years. I tried quite a few different meds. Pizotifen did work for me for around 10 months but then the headaches started to creep back in. I was never headache free but they were so much better. My headaches are always so much worse for me in the morning so I took them at bed time. Definetley worth trying.

Hi I've just joined this forum hence why replying so long after your original post.

I started on pizotifen almost a year ago after suffering with migraines for 30 years and getting progressively worse, culminating in a collapse, loss of consciousness and trip to A&E in an ambulance!

It might be an old fashioned drug but it has turned my life around. I now only get one mild migraine per month associated with menstruation. I have rediscovered exercise and going out without worrying about being ill. Hope it worked as well for you.
