Migraine sufferers also suffer mitochondrial energy deficiencies, which Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) can improve when given in high dosages. The plant material Feverfew has been shown to reduce platelet aggregation, which can lead to vasoconstriction. All 3 ingredients have been recommended for years by many doctors and top headache specialists based on the clinical studies behind them. MigreLief combines all three of these ingredients into one formula, at the dosages the clinical studies show are beneficial. So, with MigreLief, you need only one product (instead of three separate products), and you take only two tablets per day, versus 4 to 10 tablets per day if taken separately. Plus, MigreLief’s Puracol Feverfew contains high levels of parthenolides and other active components, which other feverfew products can not guarantee Two tablets provide: Puracol Feverfew(Tanacetum parthenium) – 100 mg. Magnesium (Citrate/Oxide 1:1) – 360mg, which is 90% of U.S. RDA* Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) – 400 mg, which is 23,525% of U.S. RDA* *Percentage of U.S. recommended daily allowance | | | Features: | |

Very helpful!Aug 11, 2010
By jobert With MigreLief, I have been so happy to find something that helps! It reduced the frequency and intensity of my migraines, and mostly got rid of a persistent daily headache that I hadn't realized was there. Unfortunately, pain had become the new normal for me. I suspect that I had become mineral depleted. A funny thing is that in the last few years, I always had really cracked, peely lips. After I was on MigreLief for a few weeks, they stopped peeling. Surprised, I did some research, and read somewhere that riboflavin is helpful for that problem. So I suspect I was riboflavin deficient. Whatever the case, it is nice to have migraine relief, and healthier lips.
Not being someone who rests on her laurels, I also read book reviews on Amazon for coping with headaches. I wanted to understand the underlying cause so that I was not just taking a supplement to treat a symptom, so to speak. So in addition to taking MigreLief, I highly recommend the book "Heal your Headache" by Dr. Buchholz. What he recommends is not easy, and there is a lot of pain at the beginning, but it's worth it. Apparently I have food-related triggers. Now I am to the point of only having one tiny migraine every 9 or 10 days, instead of medium ones twice a week with daily persistent headache. It feels heavenly, and I hope all other migraineurs can experience the relief and liberation I have had the past few months--even if it means giving up things like caffeine and chocolate. Best wishes to you all!
**Update**
I have done a bit of reading about Riboflavin deficiency (which I originally, erroneously suspected was a magnesium deficiency), and it is important to know that high doses of Riboflavin can cause light sensitivity. If you take MigreLief, be very conscious of protecting your eyes and skin from light. You can damage your eyes. Would have been nice to see this warning on the MigreLief label! I will post the link to this info in the comments section. Best wishes!

Got a RefundOct 25, 2010
By Ferrin Sanders I took MigreLief twice per day for over 4 months. I wanted to give it a fair try. I ordered a 3-month supply directly from the MigreLief site and ordered another supply from Amazon. (I had to stock up before going back to where I live overseas, so I put in a second order before finishing the first.) But since my headaches are as bad (or maybe even worse) than they were before I started taking this, I have to conclude that it did not work for me at all. I am currently tapering off. Although no one suggested that I do this, I feel that it would be safer to taper off gradually rather than abruptly stop the supplement. The daily dose of 2 caplets of MigreLief contains 400mg of riboflavin, which is 23,520% of the Daily Value. Taking a megadose of a nutrient makes me nervous, although not enough to stop me if it had actually worked for my migraines. I read the link to the article on riboflavin and light sensitivity (University of Maryland Medical Center) provided by another reviewer (thank you, Jobert), which says, in part:
"Riboflavin is generally considered safe, even at high doses. However, because doses above 10 mg per day may cause eye damage from the sun, people who take high doses should wear sunglasses that protect their eyes from ultraviolet light." The article also mentions that taking one of the B vitamins individually for a long time can result in an imbalance of the other B vitamins.
I'm not sorry I tried MigreLief. I feel that it was worth the try even though it didn't work for me. The supplement seems to work for some people, so I'm not trying to discourage anyone from trying it. They say on their website that they will give a refund to anyone who tries the product for 3 months without success. So I called their toll-free customer service number and received a friendly and prompt refund for the purchase of 3 bottles, minus the $7.99 postage.

No more headaches!Sep 13, 2009
By Bryony My doctor suggested that I take Migrelief and Alpha Lipoic acid along with controlling my diet (no wine, citrus, bananas, etc) and severely reducing my intake of OTC painkillers. I've now gone from having headaches 20+ days per month to only a couple at most. I'm pretty sure that the Migrelief has quite a bit to do with it and it's cheaper than all the money I would spend on OTC and prescription painkillers that only made things worse. Note that you have to use it for a few months before you can tell if it's doing anything or not. It will not make everything perfect immediately. Nothing will do that short of a lobotomy.

It works for me!Jun 04, 2010
By Dennis C. Bernth After years of having debilitating 'sinus' headaches, a couple of years ago, after reading up on headaches, I finally realized that they were migraines. I would average two or three bad ones a month, along with 3 or 4 milder ones that I would catch early enough to take the edge off. Normally mine are caused by changes in the weather, most likely allergies, and some foods. The bad ones would make functioning difficult if not impossible; a dark room, an ice pack, Tylenol Migraine formula, and time were all that worked. I've been using Migrelief for about three momths now, and in the last two months or so I've probably had a total of four headaches. All four were the mild kind that the Tylenol Migraine could handle, and I could work through them with no problems. NO laying around wasting a day off because of headaches anymore, no going to work and being miserable because of a migraine anymore. This stuff works, for me anyhow, and from these reviews for a lot of people. Since this is spring, this was usually the one of the two worst times of the year (fall to winter the other, with all the changing weather) and it is sure nice to not have to worry everytime a front blows in whether or not you'll be able to function.

Stick with itJun 15, 2011
By Laura Ross I started taking this in February during a really bad multi-day migraine episode, after switching doctors and being told by the new doctor to get this. Now, at the beginning of June, I have 28 Maxalt in my bathroom drawer. For those of you aren't familiar, Maxalt is a heavy duty Migraine drug, and insurance will generally only authorize nine pills a month, all of which I would always need. I've lived in fear for years of running out of Maxalt. I would probably average five really bad headaches a month, sometimes more, and numerous medium headaches, so the nine pills were always used, and you try to fight the rest with whatever else you could get your hands on. I also never realized I almost always wake up with a headache, you get so used to it, and that I would usually start the day with an OTC remedy to keep it at bay. I'm not sure exactly how long the Migreleif took to kick in, but I can't believe how pain free I am right now (and that I have 28 Migraine pills in my possession - formerly a three month supply, and I've only been taking the Migreleif for a four months). I wake up every morning and I'm actually "looking" for my headache - it is such a different way to start the day to not have it there - had to get used to not heading for the nearest pill bottle as soon as I woke up. I'm totally impressed, and I really hope this isn't some kind of fluke, but I am so happy right now.
I found the full dose was causing me some digestive problems that were very annoying, and my doctor told me to cut the dose in half, and just take one pill a day. Been doing that for over a month now, and still seem to be getting these results.
