| Attention U.K. Yorkie Talkers--IMIGRAN I understand that Imitrex, the migraine medicine, is available over the counter as IMIGRAN in the U.K. Could someone please check their local pharmacy for the cost? I understand it is fairly reasonable. It is sold in packages of 2 pills. What is the cost for two (2) 100mg pills? My cost is $20+ PER PILL here in the U.S. It is getting so that I just have to tough out the migraine, rather than get relief by using one of these expensive pills. Thanks, |

| It looks like it's between £7 - £9, so between $14 - $18 roughly. I believe there is a nasal spray you can get aswell.

| for 2 pills! That's a bargain. Thanks so much for checking on that. If there are any U.K. YTers going to the meetup in Alexandria, if you are willing, I can paypal you to bring me some. Thanks in advance! |

| Yeah that is for 2 pills. I don't think there are any UK YTers going to the meetup though.

| I don't know anything about it but have you checked into ordering it from Canada?

| yes, I looked into Canada. It is still a prescription drug in Canada, unfortunately, so the cost is twice as much. It's OK. I'll figure out a way to get it. I think I might be flying through London later in the year. Maybe I could pick it up in the airport! Fortunately, my headaches are becoming fewer as I get older. |

Donating YT 10K Club Member | An easier solution is to ask your doctor for it. They have loads of samples at the office and are usually quite willing if you ask.
