Have taken for several years. Leaves a lingering unpleasant taste. Now stops the headache after one dose about 75% of the time. Initially it stopped the headache 95% of the time with a single dose.

After trying Imitrex and Axert, I have found this to be the medicine to help me. The others made me sick to my stomach and I am very pleased to have found a medication that works well for me. I know that every headache and every person is different, but if your doctor recommends this, pleae give it a try. It may be just what you've been looking for.

This medication worked for me at first, but I seemed to build up a tolerance to it after a while.

The taste is a bit bad, but since it's quick desolving, it's over quickly. It helps me in a matter of minutes if I catch it at the beginning of the migraine. Would recommend to someone with migraines, especially helpful with the light sensativity and nausea.

Easy tp take, except for the aftertaste. It takes several hours for it to kick in, but it does work. Its not effective unless you take it at the start of the migrane; taking it in the middle will not help you at all.

LOVE IT. It doesn't do anything if the headache isn't a migraine, but when a bad migraine hits, this gets rid of it fairly quickly. It tends to make me a bit drowsy after I take it, but it's worth it to be rid of the migraine

I have found that in most of my migraine attacks Maxalt-MLT has work wonderful for me. It is the most easiest and convenient medication I have taken for my migraine. It has been a life safer for me when the attacks have come on at work and there is no need for water to ingest the tablet; just let it dissolve on your tongue and let it do its job! JUST WONDERFUL

Works great 95% of the time with just one dose. This is the most success I have had with all the many drugs I have tried. No side effects at all. I wish it had not taken so many years to find it!!!

it made me extremely nauseous for hours and my migraine never went away. I took the medicine again, following what my neurologist had told me, and still no luck.
