I can't comment on how treatment may effect or cause migraine. But, I've been a chronic migraine sufferer for more than 30 years. I have found (for me), that not all Triptans (Relpax, Imitrex, Zolmig, etc) are created equal; nor do they quell all migraines. For years, I have been taking Inderal (a beta-blocker) daily. I also take a low dose of Neurontin daily to help with breakthroughs. I am mostly migraine free, with occasional Relpax usage. I hope it helps, and that your husband is soon migraine free.
