I have had migraines every since I can remember and I have taken Esgic for them for about the last 20 years. It works wonderfully. My mother also takes it for hers and it helps her. My sister and brother also took it for theirs. to me it is the best there is for migraines.

I've had periodic extreme tension headaches for years. After trying over the counter medications, I went to my doctor and was at first diagnosed with a migraine problem and prescribed a migraine medication that simply didn't work and had the side effect of making me dizzy. She then prescribed Esgic which has done the trick. Taken exactly as prescribed, this is a great resource for severe tension-type headaches.

This is the only medication that I have found that works for me. My 20 yr. son also finds relief with medication.

After 5 years of suffering with tension/migraine type of headaches and going through numerous doctors finally I was given this medication in combination with Zanaflex and Phenergan. The combination of the 3 medications has been heaven sent.
