Guest guest Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 > I have tried Topamax for migraines just recently (well about 4 months ago). I didn't get much benefit from it for my headaches and, unlike its reputation, it did nothing for appetite control either. ** I don't have migraines, never did, don't know much about them but tuesday night at our orientation seminar a few people were talking about a sublingual migraine med - I thought they said the name was Maltox [malt..something]. they all seemed to think it was the best thing on earth. you know how it is, docs push all the new meds cause the pharmaceutical reps push all the new meds - they cost more before they go generic and its PR and marketing hype that the docs remember. not to mention that they are in our office feeding us lunch, pushing pens and propaganda on us about these new meds at least 3x a week. having left the non-profit world I sit amazed some days as to how and why doctors who don't need 'freebies' have them thrown at them while poor abused women sit in a shelter with nothing and barely a sole to throw anything 'free' at them. we got more can's of cheap beans but never a bottle of soda or a cake mix or some ice cream, let along free full course lunches. sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
