Imitrex vs Advil

Hi there, I was prescribed 200 mg of Topamax (100 mg in the morning and 100 mg in the evening), in hope that I would not require as many Imitrex.  I take Advil when the migraines are not as severe.  I would think Advil would not help migraines with aura or am I wrong?  Sometimes I feel it does not help at all.  So there is no point in taking too many Advil if it does not help with aura or with pain as this is the type of migraines I usually have.   Since the fall I have had more than my share as weather is a trigger.  I try to lay down in the evening but then I feel as if I am getting nothing accomplished.  I feel like it is a no win situation.  Take Advil and deal with the aura and some pain and still feel lousy, or take Imitrex get some or total relief but then end up taking too many of them.

Other preventative medation has not worked and so far Topamax has been the best (hope I am spelling it right).

Any sugguestions?

Thanks.
