However, if you do see a weather pattern that could cause a problem, be especially careful about your other triggers, and take other preventative action (non-drug). If the pressure swing is extreme (this is where the barometer is a big help), you might talk to your doctor about taking medication at that time. I find that weather related migraine attacks can be very hard to stop once they really get started. If there's any way we can stop them early, I think it's a help!

However, I wouldn't have enough medication (Frova) to take a pill each time the pressure swings here in FL. I'm sure my insurance company isn't any different from most; they only cover 4 pills a month, sometimes I'm lucky and a newby at the drug store will give me the whole (9 pill) package without realizing the insurance is so stingy.

The company originally had plans to come out with a newer better version, but looks like those plans were stalled, and the old one is no longer available. I'll try to keep my eyes open for something to replace it! Yes, I would too.
