My daughter, age nine, also has migraine, and I am concerned about giving her Alleve  and Ibuprofen(per her neurologist), as there just aren't a lot of choices for young migraneurs.  If there is any information about homeopathic supplements that are effective for younger people, please let me know.  Thanks, as usual, for your great work!  We appreciate you.

KD,

 

Have you looked at the ingredients? It's not easy to find dependable information on all of these, but belladonna is easy enough to find. I copied a bit of info for you below along with the other ingredients.


Glonoinum 12X HPUS


Belladonna 6X HPUS
In smaller doses, belladonna is traditionally thought to be safe, but may cause frequent side effects such as dilated pupils, blushing of the skin, dry mouth, rapid heartbeat, confusion, nervousness, and hallucinations. Based on animal study, belladonna alkaloids may inhibit cognitive function and gastrointestinal motility. High doses can cause death. (from Medline Plus)

Gelsemium 6X HPUS
Nux Vomica 6X HPUS
Iris Versicolor 6X HPUS
Sanguinaria Canadensis 6X HPUS

 

I have no experience with this, but would't take it myself without talking with my doctor first. So, please talk to her doctor and let us know?

 

Teri
