I use to have chronic migraines without taking prescription medications. I got to the point of severe vomiting and could not function, my day was over. But after taking this medication my migraines are controlled. Yet no medication is 100% effective, axert has certainly saved me from the dreadful days of pain.

I am 15 years old, and began getting intense migraines last year. I was hospitalized twice and put on over 20 different medications all at different times. None of these medications worked. Then my Neurologist prescribed Axert. Axert is the only medicine that will eliminate my headaches every time without fail. Axert is the go to drug for me and I highly recommend it to any migraine patient.

My son was given Axert as other triptans did not work and had too many side effect. His first dose it worked, his second dose left him dizzy with blurred vision and no reduction in migraine.

My son was given Axert as other triptans did not work and had too many side effect. His first dose it worked, his second dose left him dizzy with blurred vision and no reduction in migraine. His symptoms increased to faintness on position change, extreme fatigue, tingly feeling in legs and feet, chest heaviness, along with memory issues and cognitive deficits. Neurologist thinks it is a migraine variant. Pediatrician has no clue, ped cardiologist thinks he is dehydration with no data to back this up - he is well hydrated and had two bags of saline in er less than a week ago. Double dose - 12.5 Axert give and symptoms increased. He only gets migraines from hard exercise and increased his workout routine coinciding with second dose. Has gone from running miles on a treadmill to barely able to walk on some days. Familial history of atherosclerosis, elevated cholesterol and bp - but ped cardiologist thinks he is either dehydrated or under emotional duress. I am convinced this is a reaction to increased exercise with adverse reaction to Axert - extremely healthy fit 16 yo kid prior to this. Any ideas out there?

Usually within 30 minutes I am pain free with no side effects. I've bee forced in the past by insurance companies to try generic drugs & none of them worked. Now I'm being forced again to go generic. I get weather migraines so I can't avoid any migraine triggers. I need something that works & works quickly & that is what I get with Axert.

Tried 5 other triptans this is the only one that worked without side effects. Usually one dose is all I need
