Hi,

Decadron is usually used for swelling or possible allergic reactions, like Laraine said it is a steroid.

I too suffer with migraines, but have only had 1 (knock on wood) in the last
5 years. I take Inderal 20 mgs twice a day. This was ordered by my pcp about
15 years ago, Inderal is one of the many drugs that can be used for more than one problem, it is also used to decrese a high BP, and or heart problems.

My pcp gave me Maxalt for the last migraine and it worked within an hour.
The Maxalt I was given melts in your mouth, I don't know if it comes in any other form.

Hope this helps.
