What kind of preventative intervention would i have to do about migraines?

Suggestions: Preventative approaches may work the best in the end. OTC items such as butterbur, feverfew, Co-Q10, riboflavin, and magnesium may work as well or better than drugs. Triptans can stop headaches if used early, but work poorly after 90 min. Never use pain meds such as narcotics, as things can get worse.

First track your : Frequency. Then you try to find out what your particular triggers are and to the extent possible avoid them. Then once you know your triggers that are unavoidable for you there are some very effective fast acting intranasal and injectable treatments. Good luck!
