Hi cherryessence,

Many people do take two antidepressants together, but this is a conversation for you and your doctor, I'm afraid we can't answer that because we are not medical professionals. Only a qualified doctor can tell you if is ok to take those medications with one another, depending on what other conditions and medications you take.

Don't lose hope though, there are over 100 medications available for Migraine treatment! I know how easy it is to feel as if you've tried everything out there, but there are so many medications that can be used for Migraine and headache prevention that it's literally impossible. You can find a list of potential Migraine and headache preventives in Migraine preventive medications - too many options to give up!

How many days a week do you take something to relieve these headaches? Diclofenac is an NSAID and if taking these and abortive meds (like triptans) triptans or ergotamines or any kind of pain medication -- prescription or over-the-counter -- more than two or three days a week can make matters worse by causing medication overuse headache (MOH), aka rebound. See Medication Overuse Headache - When the Remedy Backfires for more information on this.

I hope this helps,

Nancy

Many thanks for your reply,  i was takeing the NSAIDs 3 times a day!! untill yeasterday,due to very distressing sideffects i have stopped them, and pain in my head is worse then ever!! i can hardly focus and am very weak.

i cant get to a doctor till next week and have no other form of pain killer,  i am most upset and dont no what to do.

If the pain gets any worse i will have to go to A&E  and forse the arm of the good old NHS here to do something for me, untill then i will just have to hold on tight and pray this hiddious pain goes away.

 Many thanks  not least of all for this site!!! it is a gods send, to no you are not alone.
