@alixjones2018 It's not ideal because they have a tendency to generate tolerance as well as rebound headaches, most doctors told my mom to try to limit her usage to less than 3 times a week, the one exception to this I've heard of is frovatriptan which has such a long half life that it can be used for prophylaxis. The other thing is that for most people triptans are the most effective abortive medication available. If you overuse then you get migraines that you can't treat. It's like using opioids when you could have used NSAIDs, once tolerace happens the pain can get worse than before.
PS: If someone takes frovatriptan or another one everyday and it works for them, awesome, I just think it's not worth the risk when there are many other options.

Yes the mars almond was in a white-ish wrapper

Oh god! Way too much nuance and variation between Mars, Milky Way, and 3 musketeers. There’s was a special mars that had almond. A Mars bar from the UK is closer to a snickers than a traditional mars. What a rabbit hole though.
