User Reviews for Cambia oral

Used twice 100% relief both times

I started getting migraines when I was 14 or 15 years old. Over the years have tried just about every medication for migraines known to man, with no relief. In Feb. 2015 my neurologist suggested I give this a try, what a god sent. For me it helps about 9 out of 10 times. A huge improvement.

I have tried many medications for my migraine headache and some did not do much and others did nothing. Cambia has been the only medication that has worked for me, with 0 side effects. I call it my magic powder.

I've tried EVERYTHING for migraine relief. Everything. Cambia is the only thing that's ever really worked. It doesn't always work, especially if I don't catch it in time (wake up with one, for example). But it's the best thing I've found-and no drug hangover either.

I randomly get migraines and a neurologist recommended that I try this med. 15 minutes later my migraine went away. I use Trokendi XR for daily preventions but cambia is good to have for emergencies.

I have had migraines (hormone related) for many years. They have worsened since age 30 (I'm 52). Usually I take Fioricet AND Frova - and the two together make it so I can function. With my hormone levels going a little crazy, I have been going through my meds quickly. Doc gave me samples of Cambia to try - but - it doesn't help my headaches at all. It does make my misc. aches go away (shoulder, foot, neck, hip). It makes me very nauseous and have heartburn. Too bad it won't be a help for me.

This medication has changed my life. I don't fear my migraines anymore, which I have been getting since childhood. They cause severe pain. If I take Cambia and Axert together with the aura, the pain never comes or is very minimal. I used to take Axert alone which worked ok but not nearly as well. Now if I get a migraine at work, I just need to wait for the aura to pass then I can continue with my day normally. Love it!

I've had migraines since I was a child. Ive been taking imitrex for 13 years but recently I've been having migraines every other day for the past few months. My new neurologist recommended I try cambia because I was getting rebound headaches from taking too much imitrex. For a minor headache it will get rid or minimize it. For bed bound migraines it sometimes takes the edge off but never really gets rid of it. I switch between the two and Blowfish (for hangovers but works for minor headaches). Read More Read Less

I think this works better than almost any other treatment. I have had migraine for 30 years. I am only 40 though. I don't know what others are doing that it doesn't work. When I used to get a bad migraine it woul last all day even few days. Now I can at least function to take care of my little boys

This works BEST without food, and it is the only thing I have found to take that horrible pain out of my neck. I also take a triptan for rescue, but Cambia works if you haven't been able to catch that migraine in time. It's very expensive and it's not well known. GET OUT THERE AND PROMOTE THE MEDICATION DRUG REPS! It's not a controlled substance. :-) I've never had medication stupor from it either.

Used for Migraine and had a reduction of severity of pain but not complete relief

I suffer from terrible week long migraines, my doctor gave me Cambia to try. I took it Saturday night when I was feeling the onset of a migraine and within an hour I felt totally normal. Also did not wake up the next morning with a migraine it completely prevented it! Powder tastes minty and was easy to drink.

Have had horrible migraine lasting weeks and doctor gave me some samples and when used with a Maxalt headache was mostly gone. Now if I could somehow figure out how to get UnitedHealthcare to cover I will be set. I cannot afford $262 for nine pouches.

I just took Cambia for the first time after getting a migraine. It work in 10 minutes. Wow. It saved me from a long night.

To me, this medication is a miracle! I've tried more than 10 different migraine medications. Immitrex had horrible side effects for me. Triptans in general make me feel worse instead of better. So far, this is been the most effective treatment as well as the only medication I can take and remain at work. Nothing works for every migraine, but it's still worked more consistently for me than any other medication. The two downfalls are the taste and the cost. The taste I can deal with, but the money issue is a challenge. Read More Read Less

Since it's a powder, it's very fast acting, which is so good when a migraine is coming on. Complete pain relief.

I have tried multiple drugs to help with my migraines and nothing has worked. Just got a migraine tonight and took Cambria and Relpax (as recommended by my doctor) and never got the headache. I did vomit, which is normal when I get migraines, but the headache never came. I haven't been so relieved in a long time. Really pleased with the drug.

I got a sample from dr the packet had a discount card,I like the results but when I got rx filled my insurance would not cover and the cost for 30 days was $700 with a discount my insurance company a good provider is united health care. I guess this drug is for the 1% who can afford it.

I have about an 85% success rate in migraine reduction and/or elimination. This has worked better than any other acute treatment ive tried.
