This medication actually gives me a headache (nothing unbearable) but takes care of all the weird neurological symptoms I usually get with migraines: blind spots, numb/fuzzy extremities, trouble with word recall, etc. Side effects of Zolmitriptan seem minor but sometimes last 24 hrs: hot water makes skin prickle, mild dizziness, generally a little out-of-it.

Overall, pretty much satisfied with the product. Occasionally, if not taken immediately when I notice the migraine starting, does not work as effectively.

2.5 MG OF THIS DRUG HAS BEEN EFFECTIVE IN RIDING ME OF A HEADACHE. THE PROBLEM IS THE RECURRENCE OF THESE HEADACHES. THEY TEND TO RECUR EVERYDAY.

I've found it to be extremely effective...The only problem is, it makes me VERY sleepy, so I typically fall asleep, and wake up without a migraine. If I must stay awake, I get very light-headed and dizzy - do NOT take this if you're driving!
