Nort is a 5-HT2A blocker like Serzone is & it has proven efficacy as a migraine prevention drug. Other drugs used for migraine prophylaxis are also 5-HT2A blockers.
I am taking Effexor, Nort & Thyroxine & I would definately try Nort first as you might find it's side effects profile to your liking. For me, Nort has practically no side effects at 75mg, it's like eating candy compared to Effexor & SSRI's. I'm just waiting to see my pdoc before I go higher.
Cheers,
