General Information

How do I use MigraSpray?
MigraSpray® is a comprehensive approach for the relief of migraine headaches (MigraSpray® can also be effective in the pain and symptoms associated with menstrual cycles as well as tension headaches and hangovers). Use it for rapid relief of a migraine attack or use it daily to dramatically reduce the onset of migraine headache symptoms.

Relief of a MIGRAINE ATTACK:

At the earliest symptom of a migraine attack administer ten full sprays of MigraSpray® under the tongue and hold for at least 30 seconds before swallowing. If you have not experienced relief of your migraine within ten minutes of your first dose, repeat the dose a second time.

Daily Use For Reducing the Frequency fo the Onset of Migraine Symptoms:

Every day, either in the morning or before bed, administer 10 full sprays of MigraSpray® under the tongue and hold for at least 30 seconds before swallowing. If your migraines generally occur in the early morning hours we recommend using MigraSpray before bedtime. Conversely, if your migraines generally occur in the afternoon or evenings we recommend using MigraSpray® first thing in the morning.

If ten sprays is too large an amount of fluid at one time split the dose into two parts of five sprays each (both parts of the dose are held under the tongue for a full thirty seconds).

How important is it that I hold a dose of MigraSpray under my tongue?
Very important. In order for MigraSpray to be effective, all doses need to be held under the tongue for a minimum of thirty seconds. It may be helpful to keep your head at a slight backwards tilt after administering MigraSpray.

How long will it take to feel relief?
A recent clinical study showed that MigraSpray provides relief from migraine attacks in less than 7 minutes for 88% of those studied.
When using MigraSpray continually each day for prevention you should notice a reduction in the severity and/or frequency of your migraine headaches or complete elimination of migraine in less than 60 days.

Will MigraSpray work on other types of headaches?
MigraSpray has been formulated to provide relief for migraine headaches however many users report that MigraSpray is also effective for the relieving of menstrual migraines, tension headaches, and hangover headaches. The efficacy of MigraSpray when used for relief of headaches other than migraine is unclear.

I always get headaches right before and during my period. Is there a connection?

Why is MigraSpray® administered under the tongue?

I have used products containing the herb feverfew before and only experienced a little improvement. Why does it work so well in MigraSpray®?
The formulation of MigraSpray® enhances both the efficacy and time to relief of feverfew, because it is administered under the tongue, the active ingredients bypass the gastrointestinal system, including the liver, (where much degradation can occur) and directly enter the blood stream.

What is Feverfew?
The aromatic plant known as feverfew (Pyrethrum parthenium) has been used for centuries to treat a variety of ailments. In recent years clinical studies have enhanced its status as a medicinal herb and its popularity as a lay remedy for migraine prevention. One of the agents of feverfew, parthenolide, is believed to be a natural anti-inflammatory.

What is a migraine headache?
Recent scientific evidence suggests that migraine headaches begin with a release of proteins by nerve endings in the fibrous outer covering of the brain (called the dura mater) resulting in the dilation of the cranial blood vessels following an initial contraction of these vessels. During a migraine, inflammation of the tissue surrounding the brain exacerbates the pain.

Unlike most other types of headache, migraines may have many additional symptoms. Migraines are sometimes preceded by visual auras. Following the onset of a migraine attack, symptoms may include throbbing, nausea, sensitivity to light and/or sound, difficulty in speech and semi-hemispheric head pain. A migraine attack can last for hours or days. Approximately 75% of migraine sufferers are female and both the etiology and incidence of migraine attacks vary with the individual.

What causes migraine headaches?
