Botox for
migraines describes the effect of pericranial injections of BTX-A on
migraine in three patients who presented primarily for cosmetic
treatment of frown lines. All patients were treated with a total dose of
36 u of BTX-A (Botox, Allergan). Patients were asked to keep a headache
diary for three months and were asked to rate their level of
satisfaction with BTX-A as a preventive treatment for migraine.
Migraine
headache relief has found an option in Botox. Hypertension headache,
optical migraine, cluster headache and other migraine symptoms can be
treated with this new medication.
Research shows that wrinkle
drug can reveal muscles in the face and neck that trigger headaches and
thus migraine can be treated successfully by using Botox to identify the
muscles triggering the headaches and then removing them surgically, an
American headache society study indicates.
