  • They are good but be careful of rebound which happened to me. Dont take more tritans than 10 times a month or you can end up with cronic headaches.

  • Tritans induce vasoconstriction of meningeal and cerebral blood vessles... This is in response to the dilation caused by migranes...

  • wait if serotonin becomes more active it induce pain O.o...I've always known that the drops of serotonin levels causes vasodilation which cause the headache pain..Am I missing something???
