Tricyclic is a category of med, not a med. Amitriptyline and Nortriptyline are the common tricyclics. It helps some with headaches.

Propranolol is a beta blocker commonly used to lower blood pressure. If you blood pressure is high, it would be worthwhile. Have you checked your BP when you have the headaches ?

Depakote sometimes helps with migraines. It is an anti-convulsant med, too.

Topamax is an anti-convulsant and also a nerve pain med. It has helped some.

They are all, "You gotta try them to see if one works." meds. Each person reacts differently.
