Hello. That is really odd. We are told not to use pain killers or triptans more often than 8 days in a month, at the rate of a max of 2 in 24 hours. Otherwise the migraines will get worse, we're told. How long have you been doing this?

well since I have migraines daily 8 would leave me in pain 22 or 23 days a month, and if you were to have rebound headaches how would you distinguish them from your regular migraine,so? I had to appeal insurance companies decision and my Neurologist told them about this study in California of taking 2 a day. In the past,I had prescriptions for other triptans as well and tried to get enough to cover my attacks, I've tried Oxygen,Botox,Acupuncture and about 60 other meds including new injectables ,Migraines are hard to beat
