Pain
"When I run out of sumatriptan, 50 mg of indomethacin,  a caffeine tab, ice pack and a rest gives almost complete relief in a couple hours.  Much less expensive than sumatriptan. $7 co-pay for 120 which treats 60 headaches vs $7 copay for 9 sumatriptan which treats 9 headaches.  Sumatriptan is faster but doesn&#039;t give the added relief to my arthritis. Can&#039;t take indomethacin if you haven&#039;t eaten or can&#039;t eat."
