Whilst I am happy taking Sandomigran as it does relieve my migraines, the side effects bothers me most and that is weight gain. I have gained over 10 kgs since taking it from March 2014

I've been on sandomigran for at least 3 years now. I recently went up to 3 per day but it's not working. It worked really well for ages but no longer and the side effects are getting harder to tolerate. I find they have incresased on the higher dose so I am going back to the neurologist to see if there is an alternative. I've tried lots of other meds though. Hopefully there is something out there that can help.

Definitely helps with the severity and frequency of migraine attacks. I have gone from getting a bad attack every few weeks (2-3 days in bed) to very mild attacks every few months. The mild attacks do not stop me from doing day to day activities, although I just take it easy. I feel like I have my life back. I am on the lowest dose now, but prior to that when I was on a slightly higher dose, I did notice a huge difference in my appetite - and some weight gain - just a few kilos - nothing of concern. I do suffer from stomach problems though (bloating and gas) and wonder if this could be a contributing factor.
