I have been suffering from mirgraines once a week for the last four years. After many trials with different prescriptions I was very pleasantly surprised- no, I was ECSTATIC to find that FINALLY I had a drug that took my migraines away! Yes, there are some residual affects- I have noticed muscle aches after taking a zomig- but I would rather have some sore muscles than a migraine. My cure- a jacuzzi. I found that drinking lots of water after taking this medicine decreases the side effects! God speed! Zomig is my hero!!
