Is This Dosage Of Vasograin Advisable For Frequent Migraines?
Hi.... My mother has been taking a medicine known as Vasograin for a year now because of her frequent migraines. She takes it only when she gets a migraine, which is like 6-7 times a month. So is it safe to take Vasograin about 6-7 times a month ? Are there any side effects of the medicine ? If so, is there a safer medicine available with no side effects ? I am really worried. Thanks in advance.

Hello,
The symptoms of your mother seem to be related to migraine. Vasograin is a combination of caffeine, ergotamine tartrate, paracetamol and prochlorperazine maleate.
Safer medication can be paracetamol. Vasograin should be used only in the case that is needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
