Migraine with aura. take imitrex. used to take midrin. it worked better. is it no longer available? any substitute?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not available: Regretfully, patients have noted that Midrin is no longer available. The alternatives include trying to get a compounding pharmacy to create it, other drugs like the Imitrex you are taking, as well as other medications used for migraineurs. Try asking your doctor to see if there is a compounding pharmacy in the area that can help formulate this medication. Let us know if you are successful.
