Has anyone taken Pizotifen for Vestibular Migraine/Migraine in general, and how was it? Did it work and how long did you take it for? An important question obviously, but was did anyone drink alchohol while taking it, and was the effect?

I have been prescribed it by 2 experts.

I would describe my current symptoms as: visual disturbance (hard to focus, less clear in bright lights/sun/ at night), heaviness feeling in left/back part of head (and can be felt in neck when moving head to the right), lightheaded feeling comes and goes (noticeable if I slight bent for a prolonged period of time, or in busy environments, and overcast weather/sunset time), left ear pops/crackles every time I swallow/yawn.

      What were you main symptoms? Great that they have worked. Did you ever drink alcohol while taking them? Is 1 or 2 drinks ok?
