Hello!

Depression is a personal health issue for me....

Tammi,

 

Yes, nortriptyline is also used for Migraine prevention. One thing to know is that none of the medications used for that purpose work for everyone. Also, it can take up to three months to know if it's going to work for you.

 

If you'd like to see a list of medications used for Migraine prevention, take a look at Migraine preventive medications: too many options to give up!

 

I hope this helps,

Teri
