MIGRAINE RELIEF

Join A No-Cost-To-You Research Study To Possibly End Your Worst Migraine Problems.

Approximately 9 million men and women suffer from migraine headaches in the United States. There is nothing more demoralizing than having to deal with frequent severe headaches. Migraine headaches are not only frustrating but in many situations disabling. The true cause of migraines is largely unknown, but doctors believe migraines may be caused by a chemical or electrical problem in certain parts of the brain.

What is a Migraine Headache?
By: Susan Janko, RN, MS, NP

Migraine is much more than just a bad headache. It is a painful medical condition that affects more than 30 million Americans and is one of the leading causes of missed time from school or work.

What causes a migraine? While researchers have not identified the exact cause of migraine it seems that migraine has a biological basis and that heredity plays a significant role.

How does a person know if he or she is experiencing migraines? The International Headache Society (IHS) has developed useful criteria to distinguish migraine from other types of headache.

The criteria include:
1. Between 2 and 8 attacks per month
2. Headaches that last 4 to 72 hours
3. Throbbing or pounding head pain, usually on one side
4. Pain increased by movement
5. Accompanying nausea or vomiting, or increased sensitivity to light, sound and smell.

How can migraine attacks be avoided? Often becoming familiar with one’s individual headache pattern and triggers can go a long way in preventing attacks. Headache experts also recommend having regular mealtimes, waking up at the same time each morning, not smoking, avoiding excessive caffeine, and regular exercise.

What treatments are available? In recent years there have been exciting breakthroughs in the treatment of this painful and often debilitating disorder. A class of drugs called “triptans” has been found to effectively relieve migraine pain in a large number of sufferers. PRI has been in the forefront of research with these compounds and has been actively involved in the development of even newer, more effective treatments. If you or someone you know suffers from migraines we may be able to help.
