For migraine relief, you can try taking Sumatriptan (brand name: Imitrex) as needed for migraine attacks. Additionally, you can also consider using Ibuprofen (brand name: Advil) 400-800mg for pain relief. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging.

Question

I've always struggled with vomiting whenever I'm traveling in a bus or car, ever since I was a kid. I noticed it doesn't happen when I'm riding a two-wheeler, auto rickshaw, or train, though. Currently, I use Avomin tablets to help me sleep so I don't vomit during these journeys. I'm really curious why this happens and if there's a better way to handle it. Is there something more I could do to manage this without relying on medication?

I'm 22 and have epilepsy. I've been on Valparin Chrono 300 and Frisium 10mg for the past year, and before that, I was taking Levesam 500mg for five years. I'm just wondering if these medications could cause any issues when I want to have kids in the future. Could they affect my ability to conceive or the health of the baby?
