I have tried almost every medicine for migraines, it seems. But, there really are more out there than you think there are.
Because I am new here, I am not able to post a link. Google "Health Central Migraine Medications" for a long list of medicaitons you can try.
I've been on close to 15 medications, only two worked. What, specifically, did you not like about Tomapax? If your doctor didn't increase your dosage slowly, you may have increased more side effects. Just food for thought.
I have no idea what has caused my migraines. It could be PCS, hormones, or the combination of the two. My Neurologist suggested eating gluten-free, and my migraines are almost completely gone. I also use magnesium transdermally (on the skin) because it has a better absorbtion rate.
