Propranolol

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hello, has anyone had any success reducing the frequency of their migraines , more specifically migraine aura using Propranolol? Ive recently started taking this as i experience regular auras. Im feeling quite down about having these and looking for any success stories or recommendations for treatments that have worked for you.

thanks

    Hey there! I have been taking it over a year now and it has worked wonders. I used to have them everyday and now I only have them at a certain time of the month.

    Good luck!

    Hi Lizzie

    I have taken Propranalol for many years for migraine prevention. I do believe that it helps. My migraine are now much less frequent than they were and I only take 1 tablet of Propranalol a day. When the migraines were more frequent I was taking 3 a day. I am finding that as I get older the migraines are much less severe. I can now have aura and almost no headache whereas 10 years or so ago an aura onset meant a couple of days of hell was coming. I would definitely suggest you give it a try. What harm can it do? How frequent are your migraine at the moment?

    Good luck.
