I have used the Emgality shots for the past three months. I've had migraines start the day before or the day due for the shot. However, I am so thrilled with it. I was having 8-12 migraine days a month. Now, I'm averaging 3. I've been needing Excedrin pretty often still but that's because of allergy induced headaches.
I'm a 73 yr. old female, just starting to take Emgality for headaches. I don't have migraines, but suffer from daily headaches. I was injected with 2 doses, yesterday, then 1 a month. This morning I woke up with a headache, took 2 excedrin, it was gone within 1 hour. I want to get off the excedrin. I'm going to give this time to start working. Don't know if this will start working right away or not. Let me know if anyone out there is taking this same drug and what their experience is with it.
