All the triptans are great, all expensive as fuck, fortunately effervescent paracetamol works better for me than any triptan.

>Btw Isn't isotretinoin for acne? Do you need a prescription for it?

Yes and yes. Prescription like every 6 months and blood tests to check if my liver doesn't want to kill me for treating it so bad. But I have the skin of a Korean model and my hair has 0 grease now, it's great.

I went through so much lip balm over the course of a year while taking isotretinoin. Miraculous how well it works though. The acne hasn't returned since finishing the treatment a year ago.

Oh right! At least one per month, beeswax or petroleum based for you? I preferred beeswax, the vanilla flavoured one smelled so good I wanted to kiss myself.
