Can anyone recommend one? I have been trying different preventative medication for months. Can't find anything that suits me. Triptans don't work for me!
Thanks

Migraleve only makes me slightly dopey. Pink ones take nausea away too.

I came on here to start a post about migraine preventatives - have you tried taking feverfew long term? It's on the migraine trust website and there is scientific evidence that it does help prevent migraines for some people when taken daily. I took it for four months and saw a real reduction in headaches. However, really annoyingly one of the less common side effects is abnormal liver function test results, which happened to me, so I have had to stop taking it. Past two mornings I've woken with a bad headache - didn't have any like this while taking feverfew.

Apologies if you've tried this.
