I have had migraine for years and would prefer to take something other than drugs. Do you think Feverfew may help?


Feverfew is a herbal product widely touted to prevent migraine attacks. Many people swear that this herb prevents migraines but there are very few scientific studies to back up these anecdotal reports. Review of the literature shows that feverfew was no better than a sugar pill when it comes to preventing migraines. At this moment, Feverfew cannot be recommended as a preventive aid for migraine. There are several decent medications that can help prevent migraine and I think it is best to see a headache specialist. As far as feverfew is concerned, it appears that you will end up having a bigger headache once you realize that you have spent all your money on a herb that does zilch.
