What is the best over the counter pain relief for migraines?

Question

I have tried Excedrine, Advil, Tylenol, Motrin. Nothing seems to work. I think the only thing I have not tried is Headon. Does it actually work to relieve the pain?

Answer 1

With Headon some people say it works for them, others say it doesn't. you would have to try it and see if For you . I recommend you place an ice pack on the back of your neck for fifteen minutes in a darkened room. Do this several times a day. This usually helps with Migraines.

Chiropractors can also be very helpful in reducing migraines. You may want to see a doctor of chiropractic medicine.

Answer 2

When a migraine attack comes, medication does not really relieve. For me, i had to take Synflex which is a prescribed drug...nothing over the counter will work. Go to a dark room, lie down and try to sleep it off. Hope that works for u.

Answer 3

There is no medicine for H/A OR MIGRAINE. Not only these but for almost all painful diseases. Hence they become chronic.
Acidity, excessive wind, cold , heat, sour food and sinusitis, constipation, intestinal inflammation;
Blockage in the flow of Vital Energy are their causes. None of them can be treated with medicine. Our 100% success in treating migraine &H/A confirms it.
Acupuncture is the best treatment. I can treat it with naturopathy and YOG, but how can you manage pl see.
Avoid late sleeping if possible;spicy, sour, stale bakery foods and alcohole.
Sweet foods, sweet fruits, milk, rice and good sleep will help you.
But you try one herbal remedy- two drops of drumstick leaves' juice in opposite nostril if one side pains and both nostrils if full H/A will give you rescue. Betel leaf helps but it isvery strong.
If it is acute pl search a painful point 3-6 mm behind your thumb nail and press it, H/A will disappear within 30 seconds.
