a lot of them work for a short period, the danger with them is getting medication overuse headache,just able to go and get them as you need them rather than being monitored by a medical physician.

have you heard of the NATIONAL MIGRAINE CENTRE , london. they are a charity based clinic and even if youre not able to get tot he clinic you can post questions online to them.

they have a lot on leaflets available to download on all the treatments available.

good luck!
