Has Anyone Been Prescribed Cyproheptadine For Chronic Migraine & If So, Have You Found It To Be Helpful?
A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

I’m going on my 3rd week and notice no change with migraines (they’re pretty much constant). Right now i have stabbing pains above my eyes and right side of my head. I was just in the ER for an IV & cocktail of Zoltan, benedryl, Reglan, fluids. I’m constantly battling fatigue and this has me not wanting to even get out of bed. I’ve also gained 5 lbs because I’m not doing anything. 🤷🏼‍♀️ But my headache specialist said we are at the end of the line - we’ve tried everything.

Did you discontinue it? Or are you still taking the cyproheptadine?
