Oregon 97818 481-9474 481-7351 public meeting will be held Feb. 7 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Heppner Ranger District. The district is in the final stages of development of these docu ments. The interdisciplinary team has reviewed all public responses to the proposed pro ject to date and has considered them in the development of an array of alternatives. The meeting will provide an over view of these alternatives. The T-M and Hardman C&H Allotments are located within Grant, Morrow and Wheeler counties. The two AMPs will guide the New Forms of Migraine Garden club Medicines Due Soon meeting date According to a recent report in P harm acist sL etter, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration will soon approve new forms o f two pre scription medicines used to treat migraine headaches. The new forms are easier to use than the existing injectable forms of these medicines. This is good news for many migraine sufferers. For some, attacks o f migraine headaches are so severe and debilitating that they must stop work and may be incapacitated at home for hours or even days. The two dosage forms approved are a tablet form of sum atriptan (Im itrex) and a nasal spray form of dihydroergotamine (DHE- 45). Sumatript; n is a relatively new prescription m edicine for m i graine headaches. This medicine stimulates serotonin receptors, re sulting in a constriction o f select blood vessels in the brain. Shrink ing these vessels relieves migraine pain. One drawback with this medi cine is that headaches may recur (the medicine is short acting). And it shou ld not be used by persons with a history of heart disease. Dihydroergotamine (DH E) works a lot like sumatriptan. However, until the nasal spray form is ap proved and available, it also must be given by injection. Sumatriptan and DHE should not be used to gether. Combined actions of both medicines could lead to chest pain and high blood pressure. The Heppner Garden Club will meet Monday, Feb. 6 at the St. Patrick's senior center. The program topic will be table set tings, focusing on flower ar rangements, dishes, glassware and table coverings. Also in cluded will be ideas for all seasons, a variety of ac cessories, and many styles from the formal dining room to a tailgate in serving outdoor meals. Guests are welcome. Gun Club lists winners managment of livestock graz ing on the T-M and Hardman C&H Allotments.
