For Migraine "I've been suffering from debilitating migraines for 5 years. I see auras first, to the point I can't even see out of one or both of my eyes. Once the flashing lights go away, the pain comes, and it's so excruciating I vomit. I've tried aspirin, ibuprofen, and Goody's powders... finally today I almost wrecked while driving when I couldn't see because a migraine was coming on. I pulled into the CVS and asked the pharmacist what I should take. It was the last resort before going to the ER. He said Excedrin. I'm now back at home typing this review!!!!! I can't believe it. All I'm experiencing is pressure, but no pain. I can live with migraines. I don't have to be down for 4 hours when I have kids to take care of. Thank you so much, Excedrin!!!!!"

For Migraine "I consider Excedrin Migraine a miracle drug. Curled up in a ball, waiting to vomit (sorry to be vivid), I called my mom and begged her to pick me some up. It did take a good 45 minutes to kick in, but eventually I was able to sit up, breathe normally, and not feel like death from head to toe."

For Migraine "Most people who have been diagnosed by a doctor will tell you a migraine is SO MUCH MORE than a bad headache. I have suffered from migraines most of my life. I tend to get them once every 2 weeks depending on my sleep and eating habits. Unfortunately, Excedrin Migraine just doesn't work for me. I know a lot of people have had a good experience with it, but certain prescription drugs are the only thing that will help my migraines. I am currently on Relpax, and it does make me feel groggy, but it is WELL WORTH it! When I get a migraine, I tend to get fuzzy vision, high sensitivity to smell and light, pain behind my eyes, sometimes vomiting, and numbness in my fingers."

For Migraine "Excedrin Migraine is a lifesaver. I have to have it in my medicine cabinet now after discovering it about 9 months ago. I get debilitating migraines. I can’t move, I can’t talk, I throw up like crazy. I just don’t know what to do. My mom went and got me this, and it was seriously the only thing that relieved my migraine and continues to be!"

For Migraine "I've had migraines for over 22 years. Since I was a kid, I remember going through all the pains mentioned above. Nausea, vomiting, and having to be in a dark room to let your eyes rest, and maybe it would help a bit. Then came Excedrin Migraine. Amazing! I usually have to pop 2 pills for it to help."

For Migraine "I have always used Excedrin Migraine to get rid of my headaches for years. Then all of a sudden it was pulled off the market. I would find an occasional bottle, usually at a dollar store, and when I did, it was like finding gold. Then nothing. But just the other day, I found a horde of the product at a Family Dollar store. I took two yesterday afternoon for my headache, then went out later and ate a mushroom burger and got deathly ill from food poisoning. I vomited all night and thought it may have been from taking the Excedrin, but that was not it. It is now several hours later after a terrible night, and my head was killing me. I read where several people had taken only one pill and it helped. Now that I found the horde of 35 boxes of Excedrin, I am not worried about running out. This is the only medication that works for me. I got a concussion 28 years ago, and none of the high-power drugs worked until I found Excedrin Migraine. How come nothing else works for me?"

For Migraine "My wife has suffered from migraines since a child. I’ve seen her take several things over the years, and nothing ever worked. I’ve seen her sick for days on end, vomiting so hard she loses all sense of time. Then I see your commercials for migraines, this company has no idea what a migraine even is. Please stop making claims your medicine is for migraines. My wife finds some relief in Maxalt, and that doesn’t always work. Just hype is all you're selling."
