You Don't Need Drugs I have never met a person suffering from migraines in my entire life who has not tried some kind of medication to treat their condition.
Of course, the unbearably painful headaches in migraines force you to do so.
You want to get rid of the pain and you want it done immediately.
So did I, but I must tell you that my experience with the medication commonly prescribed or promoted for the treatment of migraines is far from satisfying, or even pleasant.
Using commonly taken medication for migraine such as Topamax, I suffered side effects like headache, diarrhea, nausea and dizziness.
The medication is even known to cause memory problems, sleeplessness and paresthesia in some cases, so it could have been much worse.
Ergot alkaloids like Migranal are commonly used for migraine, but the formula is associated with the risk of peripheral ischemia, that is, the stoppage of flow of blood to certain body tissues, thus rendering them dysfunctional, which could be life threatening.
Moreover, different medication types used for migraines such as Tripatans, anti-depressants Ergot derivatives can cause side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, nausea or vomiting and rebound headaches.
Oploid Agonists or Antagonists can even cause addiction.
They Just Wont Treat Your Migraine It is true that most people are not affected by the medication with their worst possible side effects commonly, but when they are not going to treat your condition, are they worth the risk to "experiment" with.
I have done that and have paid the price on my part, although I am thankful that not a lot of damage was done.
I have learned my lesson and have stayed away from medicines that are used for the so-called treatment of migraine.
And yet I have been able to effectively control and treat my migraines, through completely natural means and safe means by simply organizing myself and learning more about my condition.
