ERGOTAMINE TARTRATE AND CAFFEINE vs METHYLPHENIDATE

I get severe non visual migraines lasting from 6 hours to 2 days with vomiting and diarrhoea, started at the age of 9. At worst 3 or 4 attacks a month. (m) Cafergot - ergotamine tartrate and caffeine. Worked very well but dr pulled me off it as the side effects can cause heart and liver problems. Th

(And to go outdoors/exercise more lol) However, I’m worried if I keep getting migraines in the future, I will have to rely on Caffox. The doct

I've been having migraine attacks since 14M years currently 26. I have migraines with or without Aura. Aura migraines happens only 2-3 times a year. As a confused kid, I went to an eye specialist then thinking it's related to some eye issue. I was presribed Vit A meds and it significantly reduced th

Hi! I'm sorry I think posts on headaches are really common and I don't think this is a super serious or life threatening situation, I'm just seeking some opinions or similar experiences! I've searched this sub for headache posts but none really seem to fit my situation so I thought I'd try my luck w

The pharmacy also can't fill a drug if the wholesaler won't ship it. Here are some workarounds that you may consider: \-Ask your doctor if you can

This is the sort of shit that actually makes me angry. Firstly, comparing methylphenidate to meth is like comparing codeine to heroin, or caffeine to cocaine. Just because they're both stimulants does not make them *the same*. I literally cannot concentrate, I don't have the hormones to concentrate,

It's been like this for almost a year and I'm at my limit. I can barely get myself out of bed in the morning despite the fact that I've been taking Methylphenidate ER (Ritalin) for almost a decade. I've adjusted my dose in the past but the last time I did I just don't feel like it made a difference.

In France ADHD is treated for kid with Methylphenidate (Ritalin®, Rilatine®, Biphentin®, Concerta®, PMS-Méthylphénidate®) and is 100% reimbursed by social security But when you became adult at 18, we consider you magically healed from your ADHD and that there is not enough studies to give a treatmen

I was diagnosed with ADHD by my doc. I went through about 3 different medications, methylphenidate, Adderall, and Zoloft as well to treat symptoms.
