Recurring migraine? what med can help
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Some meds help: These really are hard to prevent. There are multiple meds, a bad sign that none are really effective. tops ax, inderal, some calcium channel blockers and even NSAIDs especially in teens. Abortive treatment with onset of symptoms, like Imitrex (sumatriptan) type meds. There is a whole new class of meds to prevent that are in trials now. They seem effective in close to 80% in prevention.
