Migraine Treatment Questions

Asking your doctor about your treatment can help make sure you get the best care you can for your migraines. Don't hesitate to ask these questions when considering any treatment. And remember, even though doctors' offices are often very busy, your health is too important for you to rush.

Before taking any prescribed migraine medication be sure to ask the following questions:

	Is this medicine made specifically for migraines?
	Will it relieve my pain?
	Will it relieve my nausea and sensitivity to light and sound?
	Will it make me drowsy?
	Is it potentially addictive?
	If nausea makes swallowing a pill impossible, is there some other form of the medicine I can take?

	IMITREX is a prescription medicine for the acute treatment of migraine attacks, with or without aura, in adults. You should not take IMITREX if you have certain types of heart disease, a history of stroke or TIAs, peripheral vascular disease, Raynaud syndrome, or blood pressure that is uncontrolled. If you have risk factors for heart disease, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, or are a smoker, you should be evaluated by your doctor before taking IMITREX. Very rarely, certain people, even some without heart disease, have had serious heart-related problems when taking IMITREX. If you are currently taking other medications or if you are pregnant, nursing, or thinking about becoming pregnant, you should talk to your doctor before taking IMITREX. If your headaches are not migraines, IMITREX is not for you.
