Naproxen / sumatriptan for Migraine "This medicine does get rid of my migraines, but I have to deal with feeling worse before I feel better. There also are times when it takes 2-3 hours to kick in, though the usual is about an hour. For me, that's a very long time when you have a migraine getting worse."

Naproxen / sumatriptan for Migraine "I generally always have a headache but can get through the day with no problems. But recently, my headaches really trigger my migraines, and with them, I get nausea, sensitivity to light, and extreme pain in my head! When I explained this to my doctor, he prescribed Treximet, and I am so glad he did. I take one pill on the onset of a migraine, and within 30-60 minutes, I have complete relief. I'm so happy I found out about Treximet!"

Naproxen / sumatriptan for Migraine "I take one pill as soon as my aura begins. Treximet relieves the feeling of nausea, and light and smell sensitivity, but it does not relieve the pain from the headache completely. I still have a slight headache for about 4 hours. I guess I should be thankful because the pain is not nearly as bad, but it's still there."

Naproxen / sumatriptan for Migraine "I give Treximet a 10 rating based on my 30-plus years of suffering from migraines. For me, it stopped the migraine in its tracks without the nausea I experienced from the Imitrex injection or nasal application. It also kept me from experiencing the 24-48 hour 'hangover' that I would experience after the acute phase of the migraine had passed. An excellent drug!"

Naproxen / sumatriptan for Migraine "I typically take a DHE injection to treat my migraines. The downside is that it takes a couple of hours to rid me of the pain, and the symptoms during this cycle are horrible: nausea, nasal congestion, a very drugged, but not sleepy feeling. Treximet is great, it works within 30 minutes to an hour. Does not require sleep or other maintenance. Downside for me is that within 24 hours, the migraine is back!"

For Migraine "I get migraines with and without pain. But usually have blurred vision and nausea. I believe it's food related. I've kept a log of food intake, activities, allergies. It comes down to flour, MSG, gluten."

Naproxen / sumatriptan for Migraine "I feel extremely nauseous and dizzy for about half an hour after taking these, but migraines make me feel nauseous anyway, so it's a small price to pay for getting rid of the pain. While the nausea and hot flashes persist, I like to think that the Treximet and the migraine are duking it out for superiority in my brain."

For Migraine "My migraines usually consist of aura, numb hand/face/nose, and aphasia, followed by the severe headache alongside nausea and vomiting. They usually last about 3-5 hours until I can function again. I had been taking naproxen for my painful menstrual cramps. It worked quite well for this, and so when I felt my hand going numb last night, I took a naproxen right away to see if it would help the migraine. Well, I still had most of the symptoms prior to the headache, however, the headache itself was much less intense (about a 4/10 on the pain scale compared to an 8 or 9). I also did not feel nauseous and did not experience any vomiting. I highly recommend trying naproxen for migraine treatment. It made mine much less severe. I swear by it now."
