Imitrex And Rebound Headaches Resource in Q&A
can imitrex cause rebound headache? i had a migraine for 7 days, so i took 100mg of imitrex, then the next day it was better but still there, so i took another 100mg. after that it was still there but much better, so i continued taking tylenol for a week and a half. it progressively got worse again so i took another 100mg the night before last and my migraine was totally gone for all yesterday and this morning. now, it is coming back again. should i take more imitrex or am i starting to get rebound migraines because i am taking imitrex. i dont know what to do... and btw im 37 weeks pregnant.

RoRo replied: "Every person who has headaches or Migraine disease should be told about medication overuse headaches (MOH), aka rebound headaches, by your doctor. Imitrex is one of these medications."

Kim k replied: "I am under the impression that any medication that can take a headache away can potentially cause a rebound headache. I would call your OB and have a talk about this. I was told to keep Imitrex use to an absolute minimum while I was pregnant. That was years ago so they may have found it isn't as dangerous as they first thought but it's worth checking into."

How many doses of Tylenol is it safe to take to avoid rebound headaches? I suffer from chronic headaches which ofter lead to migraines. I used to take Excedrin Migraine until my nose started bleeding because of the Aspirin in the drug. Advil does not work for me anymore, so I switched to Excedrin Tension which is Acetaminophen and Caffeine. I always take the recommended dosages. It seems to work most of the time, but when nothing works, I take 100mg of Imitrex. I get headaches about 2 weeks worth of every month and I average about 3 dosages of Excedrin Tension per week usually 2-3 days apart. I only take 2 pills and if that doesn't work, I either don't take anything else or take the Imitrex. I want to know if I am getting or risking rebound headaches by taking 3 dosages in a 7-day period. Can anybody with a medical degree answer this question?

Mike replied: "omg. you are going to die from liver disease. no kidding. too much acetaminophen is so extremely dangerous. and if u drink even a sliver of alcohol it will multiply that. look up migrane prescription meds like Zomig and stuff. the Exedrin Migrane works nicely for those of us with seldom migranes. in your case, talk to a doctor. Seriously lay off the Acetapenophin. it is deadly. The FDA just recently lowered the average daily dosage recently because the realized this as well. way to go government..... its like my city has to wait until 50 people die in an intersection before they put up a stop sign.. yay government ! :\"

Let's talk headaches? I have been getting horrible, HORRIBLE headaches.. sometimes two or three times a day. Went through one prescription of imitrex (9 pills) in 6 days. The imitrex helped, but rebound headaches are awful. We tried treximet (I think its the same thing more or less, just a different drug company) and it helps too, but I still get rebounds. I give up. Traditional medicine is not working... I feel like I should start looking into an alternative solution to get some relief, because I am truly desperate. Where do I even go from here? acupuncture? something else? How does one find GOOD, reputable, alternative healthcare? Thanks in advance!

liz replied: "umm...well i was thinkin those arent headaches those r more like migranes!!!!! : o hope u feel better soon...good luck!!!"

Tanya replied: "What is stressing you out? What are you thinking about? Are you fearful of something? Are you being self-critical? This can all lead to really bad headaches. You need to bring your "Energy" down from your head. Meditation can help with that: Close your eyes and imagine "sweeping" the energy from your head down to your feet over and over again. The focus on your pelvic floor region of the body. Also, migraines can be cured by having some good sex; it helps bring the energy down in your body. In terms of alternative healthcare, I always recommend an acupuncturist, or someone who is really good at Reiki (people who move energy in the body)."
