Hey Everyone
What else could I take for a headache beside Tylenol?

Without a doctor's consent, the only OTC meds u can take are ALL of them, except NSAIDs (i.e. Motrin, Naproxen, Aspirin). If your head is hurting really bad and you need some sleep, the Goody's PM are the bomb....since our bodies do not process meds (or anything else for that matter) the way it used to, the GOODY's PM are GREAT because they are already crushed.

Also, I have found that any type of GEL CAP or RAPID RELEASE are better than regular Tylenol.

Also, yeah, I'm long-winded LOL, if you are not sure as to what is causing your headache, have it checked out as well....when my blood iron is low and when my blood pressure drops, I get a terrible headache....I also suffer from CLUSTERS ~not migraines....I just had to be THAT woman that got the headaches most known in MEN~ so my doc prescribe me ULTRAM ER....they work GREAT for me.

I focus not on my disabilty; my focus is on my ABILITIES.

Thanks so much D...
I suffer from migraines and I had to ween myself from the shots and pills.  Before surgery, I would take BC powder and drink a coke and that would help.  Since surgery, I've been taking Tylenol but it's not that effective.  I just wanted something that would work.  The Goody's is like BC.  I didn't know there was a Goody's PM.  I will look for that.

The Goody's PM doesn't have NSAIDs...either...so they really work great...I only find them at Kroger's and Wal-Mart.

I have migrains as well. I take a prescription medication that is tylenol based and it works very well.  It goes by several names: Midrin, Migrin A and Isometh.  Ask you doctor.  But if you have already had a prescription, my daughter teks Maxalt and that really helps her.
