The most commonly used supplements for Migraine prevention are:
• Vitamin B2
• Magnesium (If taking magnesium, it needs to be balanced with supplemental calcium)
• Coenzyme Q10 (Softgels, not tablets or capsules. It's less effective once powdered)
• Butterbur / Petadolex
You should talk with your doctor before adding any of these to your regimen.
Feverfew used to be recommended frequently, but it has now been shown that it has a rebound effect when you stop taking it. Also, it is not safe for women who are or could become pregnant.
There are several products that combine three or four supplements, but I'm personally not in favor of them. When you take a combination, you can't really tell what, if anything, works.
Hope this helps!
