Does anyone know if taking a Maxalt will help the headache I have with this bad cold? I feel really rough this morning. Thanks.

It will help if it's a migraine, but not if it's a non-migraine headache.

Thanks for your reply Milo. It kind of feels like a migraine (the pain is nasty) but I have a bad cold so I'm not really sure. I'll try and put up with it and go to bed early.

Thanks for asking Risa,

I've had a dreadful week. I never did take the Maxalt, but had a headache for a good 3 or 4 days. I went to see the doctor on Wednesday as I felt so ill and had a deep cough, he thinks it is some bronchitis, or bacterial infection or something so I'm on antibiotics. I still feel really weak but a little better today. I was so weak yesterday, just trying to hold a magazine to read was an effort!
