Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My girlfriend has recently had a serious operation and has been prescribed tramadol to deal with the pain. She suffers from bad migraines but I ve read that she cannot take her amitriptyline tablets as they interact badly with tramadol... what can she do/take instead to relieve her headaches?

Hello,
You can try Ketanov (pharmacological drug - Ketorolac) instead of Tramadol. It's generally safe for people on antimigraine meds.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
