With acute medication can I use imitrex shots two day and Ubrelvy on two other days.

  1. Hi
    Thank you for your question! As much as I wish I could answer this for you, we cannot give medical advice. Have you posed this question to your doctor and/or pharmacist? If not, I would encourage you to.
    I can tell you if we take acute migraine medications and/or pain relievers, whether they are over-the-counter or prescription, more than 10 days a month we can increase our risk of medication overuse headache. If we are in an overuse cycle our attacks may be more difficult to treat and we can end up in a daily cycle of pain that is hard to break.
    I'm sure others will be along to share their experiences with you. Please keep us posted and I'm wishing you a low pain day, Nancy Harris Bonk, Patient Leader/Moderator (team member)
