Switching from one medication to another, or adding a new medication to your treatment plan, may be necessary throughout your treatment journey for migraine.

If you are experiencing ongoing symptoms, intolerable or unpleasant side effects, or even new-to-you symptoms, it may be time to discuss changing your treatment plan with your doctor or care team.

If you have modified your treatment plan, when did you know it was time to try a new medication? Share your experiences and advice for others in the comments below.

Living with a health condition can be frustrating and unpredictable even on the "good" days. When the "bad" days become more frequent or even unbearable and you struggle to get out of bed, are forced to cancel plans, or miss work you might decide that you need a little extra support through treatment.

Migraine treatment types and experiences can vary from person to person. You may have tried (or are currently on) acute treatments like triptans, nerve blocks, or acetaminophen. Or perhaps you are currently trying (or have tried) a type of preventive treatment like CGRPs or physical therapy (like prescribed neck/shoulder exercises).
