What Works If Imitrex Doesn’t? I Haven’t Tired Imitrex Spray. Is It More Effective Than Pills?

A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

Imitrex works if I take it soon enough. The last 2 times I had a migraine it didn’t work. I threw up took a second imitrex but it didn’t work.
Would the imitrex spray work better? In case I throw up aftet taking an imitrex pill.

I take the Imitrex injections. The nasal spray was so gross tasting. I felt like it was all going down my throat. I feel better within 20 minutes.

I found Maxalt Max to be helpful.

I had to move to the injections because the others werent working well.Nasal might work better. Ask for a sample. I think there's an sublingual, too. Dr.should provide samples before prescribing.
