I just read that it's not recommended, I heard that Sertraline is prescribed for migraines?
Seems to be causing mine, last night I had a massive one, I went really hot and it made me feel like I needed to vomit and no matter what I did or how I lay it wasn't going and my neck and my shoulders/upper back are really hurting :/

Well it never occurred to me to not take Nurofen with sertraline. BUT, I did for a while and ended up getting gastritis, which I suspect was caused by the two drugs. So now I stick with paracetamol, which doesn't work very well.

The only thing I find that works for those monster headaches, is codeine (e.g. Paracetamol and Codeine combination - you can get it OTC). Or maybe try migraine tablets, as they include an anti-emetic (for the nausea)?
