I have been using Frova for five years during the onset of a migraine. It works very well for me.I tried a couple different migraine pills at first but they made my face bones ache while still experiencing the migraine just slightly for an hour to two hours before the migraine would go away. I find this is not so with Frova and have used it sinced. The migraine subsides within an hour of taking it

I have tried a number of different medications, but this medication allows me to overcome my migraines within an hour or two and then I can salvage the day.

If not, I take another one and that certainly takes care of it.
