My migraine basilar with auditory aura only stops after 5mg rizatriptan. mum had double stroke @60, worried may cause me stroke. any natural cures?

Response: Stroke risk for complex migraine patients increases with smoking, and use of female hormones. Rizatriptan has very low risk if taken exactly as prescribed. Higher dosing dramatically increases adverse reactions.
