Taking inderal for headaches and the side effects?

Question

I currently get about 4-5 bad headaches a month. I take Imitrex to releive them and it works great. But my doc thinks I am still getting too many headaches in a month. He prescribed me Inderal to take daily, but I am worried about taking it. I read up on the side effects. I was just wondering if anyone can tell me any side effects they have experienced and how long it took for them to go away.

Answer 1

The only side effect I had from it was trouble sleeping at first. It went away after a few weeks. Inderal did not work for me alone. I took it along with amytriptaline. The combination worked well for several years until I finally "outgrew" these migraines.
