Spray your headache away

IOL: Spray your headache away:
"One hour after treatment with the Zomig spray, 28 percent of the patients said they had no pain and 51 percent were able to resume normal activities. This compared with 10 percent of those who got the placebo who reported no pain after an hour.

Two hours later, 39 percent who used zolmitriptan reported their headaches were gone, compared with 19 percent of those who used the placebo spray."

My Take:

This study could not possibly have been well controlled. 19% of subjects got over a MIGRAINE with a placebo?? Give me a break. No way.

On a different tack, every spray product I have tried (including the aforementioned Zomig) makes my migraine immediately much WORSE.
