That's good news! So far, Verapamil has been working for me. But I will definitely keep your regimen in mind if I get less than satisfactory results from Verapamil.

Price Of Medications

A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭
Lynchburg, VA

What insurance company is used to help with the cost of all medications for migraines? If you are on Medicare, those little coupons disqualify you from any discounts, which I'm not sure I want to understand their reasoning there. That's the government, always there to help. LOL
Not one prescription has been under the cost of $500, and on a strict budget, that's not possible. If anyone has any ideas that would help, I would be grateful.

I have been trying to get my insurance to cover Vyepti for 2 years now. I’m hoping to hear from other people who have tried it. I’m currently taking Quilipta but I had the best results with Ajovy.
