Headaches are extremely painful, and can render you completely functionless when severe enough. Scientists believe that brain chemical imbalances and abnormal blood flow in your brain cause these excruciating headaches.
You can
take medications to help prevent and relieve your migraines, but they carry the risks of unpleasant side effects; they can also cause rebound headaches, which are more frequent or severe headaches whenever you stop taking the medication. Vitanica’s Butterbur Extra may be right for you: it’s a natural migraine remedy that might prevent and treat migraine headaches by balancing the chemicals in your brain and normalizing blood flow.
Each vegetarian capsule provides
essential nutrients and herbal ingredients, such as:
Butterbur extract, which might reduce the frequency of your migraines
Riboflavin (as vitamin B2), which might reduce the frequency and duration of headaches
Magnesium, which is a
mineral that might reduce headache severity and frequency; many migraine sufferers are deficient in magnesium
Feverfew extract
Ginger extract, which may combat the nausea and vomiting that’s often associated with serious
headaches
5-hydroxy tryptophan, which is an amino acid that regulates levels of serotonin, a chemical in your brain; this may reduce the frequency and severity of your headaches
Take two capsules twice a day. You can stay at that
dosage, or reduce it to two capsules once a day after one to two months; if your headaches return, go back to the twice daily dose. Don’t take Butterbur Extra by Vitanica if you’re pregnant, nursing, or have liver disease. Ask your doctor
before taking Butterbur Extra if you have kidney disease, are taking SSRIs, blood sugar-lowering medications, anti-coagulants, or barbiturates.

Be careful! with this if you need to go on any medication that increases seratonin. You will have to cut back or completely go off and fast. Now I have almost a full bottle left and wasted a bunch of money. Not happy, no ones fault, just sucks.
I would recommend this item to a friend.
