I'm 68 and have been getting migraines for 10 years now but my medication wears off throughout the day, what else can i do?

What medication: The name of the medication you're taking would be important to help understand how or why it is "wearing off." preventative medications for migraine (prophylactic treatment) are varied in their underlying function, so a change in the dose or the type of medication may be necessary.

Botox and Surgery: Long term relief of migraines can be achieved with botox. If you have a good response, you may be a candidate for surgery. Surgery has been shown to dramatically decrease the frequency and intensity of migraines. www.themigrainereliefcenter.com.
