View Full Version : Migraine sufferer on Strattera....? sportbikechic 01-24-07, 04:21 PM Is anyone else a migrainer on Strattera? Did it make it worse? Have no impact? Thanks :) Miriam 01-25-07, 07:37 AM I used to get bad migraines so I was really scared too to read the "headaches" side effect on the product warning. But I never had a problem. My migraines were always when I was stressed, dehydrated or hungry (or usually a combo). They were awful (throwing up and everything). Before I started strattera I found out that I didn't get them anymore if I took magnesium every day. So when I started taking strattera I kept taking my multivitamin and extra magnesium pill every day too. Never had a migraine in the six months I've been on the drug. sportbikechic 01-25-07, 11:21 AM Whew! That is good to hear.:) I am down to 1 migraine every other month or so, I usually get them more often during the cold winter months. I broke my neck 11 years ago and wore a halo for 6 months and was paralyzed for a short time, when I get stressed or strain my neck I get headaches. I also tended to get more migraines after the birth of my son, hormones? The Nortrityline helps so much, the length of migraine has decreased in half. I use to have them for 5 days and be sick in bed, holding my head and crying. I use to take magnesium too, I haven't been taking it lately though. I will start to take it! Good idea! I hope the Strattera works for me, as you know, us headache sufferers have to be more cautious with new meds. |
