| 5 | Migraine | Awesome | F | 48 | 1 days 50 1X day | 6/6/2021 | 5 | Cluster headaches | None | I take zomig 5mg nasal spray. It was taking longer to work when really severe cluster. Doctor prescribed Cambia to take 15 min after zomig. Works great. Completely gone in 10 min. Feel a bit dizzy and wobbly after but not bothered by that. Highly recommend. | F | 54 | 3 days 2X day | 11/12/2020 | 5 | Migraines | I get tired but that could be caused by the migraine itself | The drug is very effective against migraine and it does not make me nauseous. I take on a full stomach. | F | 38 | 0 days 50 mg | 5/14/2020 | 5 | migraines/thyroid | it's amazing and takes away headache/migraine within 20 minutes. I am so thankful | 52 | 1X day | 2/21/2020 | 5 | Migraines | Vomiting, GI upset | Stops almost any migraine for me, but I can't take it too often due to having a sensitivity to NSAIDs. I tried some other generic NSAIDS due to the cost and that didn't work since I needed repeated dosages, which I couldn't tolerate. | F | 34 | 4 years 1X AN | 1/9/2020 | 2 | Migraines | Became so expensive, went to generic pill form. | F | 23 | 2 years 50 1X AN | 1/10/2019 | 3 | Having headaches daily | Headaches and swelling. Pain in stomach. | I am only allowed to take no more than two a day and three a week. When I am out for that week I have to wait until the week is over to take anything else. Did not know that it would make my stomach problems worse. | F | 37 | 6 months 15mg | 8/1/2016 | 5 | Migraine headache | Took 1 daily as needed with migraine. Best thing ever. | Cannot afford $900 before meeting deductible, then $200 copay after deductible. Shame on pharmaceutical company. Needless to say, cannot afford to take this medication. | F | 53 | 1 days 50 mg pwdr 1X day | 3/23/2015 | 1 | Migraines | Because of aspartame component I experienced worse migraines. | If aspartame is a trigger for your migraines, do NOT take this. Most doctors will say it is such a small amount that it will not matter. It does! | F | 31 | 2 weeks 1 pkt 1X day | 5/3/2013 | 2 | Migraine | Tastes gross -- heavy mint flavor. Felt like it was burning my esophagus all the way down, then dry heaves once it hit my stomach. But it didn't make me actually vomit, and the burning sensation went away quickly. | Was prescribed Cambia as a backup to Maxalt, since triptans can be taken only 2 days/week. Unfortunately, it didn't work at all on my migraines, so I'll continue to look for something else as a backup. | F | 47 | 50 mg 1X AN | 11/14/2012 | 5 | migraines | Once I had bad nausea due to taking it on an empty stomach. Also causes bleeding problems. | Stops migraine immediately when taken early on when all others didn't. If I wait I have to take two doses. Easy to take - a powder in a small amount of water. It is an anti-inflammatory, not a hypnotic. My insurance only pays for 4 doses a month, less than I need, and paying for it without insurance is too expensive. | F | 62 | 1 years 50 mg 1X AN | 5/24/2012 | 1 | Migraine | None | Didn't work | M | 55 | 1 days 50 1X day | 3/21/2012 |
CAMBIA (DICLOFENAC POTASSIUM): Diclofenac is used to relieve pain from various conditions. This form of diclofenac is used to treat migraine headaches. Diclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It works by blocking your body's production of certain natural substances that cause inflammation. This effect helps to decrease swelling, pain, or fever. FDA Approval Date: 2009-06-17 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)
