After taking one (1) pill at bedtime, I awoke several times during the night by morning I was exhausted, weak,and very depressed. After breakfast,taking my atenenol, lasix, ultram moduretic, and potassium, I decided to stay in and rest-perhaps I would feel better. The next night, another bupap tablet, ultram - I had another restless night , by morning I was so very tired I stayed in bed unil l0:3...

Prescribed for me for migraines. This medication seems to work well and keeps me out of the doctor's office/urgent care and shots of Tordol.

This drug really really works! Does a great job of stopping the tension headaches. It does make me alittle sleepy but not to the point I have to lay down.

Bupap usually works for me. BUT I DO NOT take it everyday, as it says it is "habit forming". The last thing i want is to be addicted to any kind of drug. It makes me kind of sluggish, but other than that it works pretty good.

I have migraines and tension headaches on a daily basis. This med works great. The only drawback I've had so far is the making you sleepy. So headaches during the day, I just have to deal with. I may break em in half and see how they work throughout the day. I just started taking this so I'm still learning the side effects but it does knock out headaches, amazingly. For that reason, I'm staying with them for right now.

I have been taking for sinus headaches on and off for over a year. It seems to work well but with two small children I can not stay awake with it and I am a person that most meds do not make me fall asleep.

After breakfast,taking my atenenol, lasix, ultram moduretic, and potassium, I decided to stay in and rest-perhaps I would feel better. The next night, another bupap tablet, ultram - I had another restless night , by morning I was so very tired I stayed in bed unil l0:30am, I monitored my heartrate and it was 57. It seems the bupap had put me slow motion...I forced myself to eat oatmeal, drink 3 cups of coffee to help flush bupsp out of my system. Also took a laxative. By the fifth day- my strength was returning. No more Bupap, but regular medication had been continued during this time. It felt like my life was just leaving me...No way will I ever take it again or a generic like it. If I had taken the third dose, I believe I would have died. Read More Read Less

I have had much better success alleviating my headaches with this medication than any other. The only downside is that it makes you sleepy but it does subdue the headache so it is worth it to me.

I have what they call A Typical Migraines and this is the ONLY medication I have found that works. I worry when I start to run out.

I am taking the bupap for a backache with unknown source until further tests results are received. The doctor prescribed it as a pain reliever more effective than something I could get OTC. It seems to have relieved the pain within 1 1/2 hours. The pain was only 4 out of 10.

Taken for migraines. I got no help from this medication at all. I tried it in combination with 3 other preventive meds and it still didn't work.
