Anyone Taking Memantine?

A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question πŸ’­
Chicago, IL

My insurance company is blocking me from getting Emgality and after approving my Ubrelvy since November, is now denying it. The Botox is not working anymore. So now my neurologist is saying that we are running out of options, but has put in a prescription for Memantine 5mg BID. Is anyone else on this? Has it helped?

A MyMigraineTeam Member

I thought Mematine was for memory?? My mom takes that she has dementia.

Medications

Please please let me know some names of medications that you have had some success with. I have tried a couple with not much success. I have found that botox works but I am unable to have health benefits at this time. When I did have benefits it was covered and life was not as painful πŸ˜“.

Sumatriptan (generic Imitrex) is cheap at Costco and works well for me as a rescue. Currently, gabapentin is helping me a lot for prevention.
