I have searched the archives and looked in Dr. Tom's book and cannot seem to
locate an acceptable substitute for migraine headaches.
The Mom had no history of HA before delivery. She has tried aceteminophen
preparations and ibuprophen with out relief. She is becoming debilitated by
the Head Aches.
Her MD suggests she take Aspirin/Caffeine. She is concerned about the effect
on the baby (7 weeks).
My research suggests the use of propanolol and some herbs. She is unsure
about herbs and said her MD feels the Aspirin/caffeine is the best option.
Is there any information on NEW meds which would be safe for her?
Anyone have further suggestions?
TIA, once again!
