Life Extension Migra-Eeze - Butterbur Root Extract with Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) & Ginger Supplement - Formula to Ease Head Discomfort - Gluten-Free — 60 Softgels

My neurologist said if I keep getting migraines she’ll have to put me on another medication. So I looked for an gentler alternative that would help to prevent them. I have migraines with aura; this totally prevents them as long as I take it at least 1x per day (it’s expensive!). They give me zero side effects. If I have a particularly bad day and feel a migraine breaking through, I’ll take a second one and it usually goes away within 30 minutes. It’s a lifesaver- no more missed days of work and being stuck in bed laying in the dark for hours on end. I can’t tolerate caffeine so Excedrin didn’t work for me. Like all gelatin capsules in the summer months the bottle can heat up and the capsules become stuck together. I put them in the freezer for 10 min and then stick my finger or a pen in the bottle to break them up enough to grab individually. They’re pretty forgiving and I’ve never broken a capsule.

This review is for those of us that suffer from that horrible "off balance" feeling / dizziness / vertigo. After exhausting the few things doctors can check for with regards to dizziness, you are basically left to figuring out how to live with it. I tried taking several medications and some worked decent but with side effects and some didn't work at all. I then found Migra-Eeze in one of my late night searches for how to rid myself of dizziness that came on suddenly one day. That was over a year ago. For me, this works better then anything else and without side effects. I've tried Migravent and for me, it didn't work near as well. I recently stopped taking my nightly pill because of some complications with my auto-immune disease. I wanted to cut out anything that I take that wasn't absolutely necessary. I haven't had the "off balance" feeling for so long, I wasn't even sure I needed it anymore. I didn't notice anything for a few days and figured I didn't need it anymore. Wrong, today I woke up with that feeling. Everyone that has dizziness knows how awful it is to have that constant and low level dizziness (I do sometimes get actual vertigo but rarely and it only lasts second/minutes). Needless to say I'll be taking 2 per day until it goes away and then will drop back down to my maintenance 1 a day. I should say, for others looking for their own answers, I've had migraines since a teen (I'm now in my mid-40's and female) and I have a rare sub-set of cluster migraines that are tied to my autonomic nervous system. So it probably is why I have the dizziness. For those taking it for migraines, it's not like a rescue pill. My adult daughter has PMS migraines, she needs to start taking one morning & night a few days before her cycle starts and then continue for 5-7 days. You should take these as maintenance or before a migraine, not as a rescue med.

Yes I got it and it really does help me feel better.

I’ve been taking this for years and it definitely works even when I take it once a day.

Great item. I have been using for a few years. Very effective.
