What causes migraine?
Migraine is thought to be due to a widening of the blood vessels around the brain. This stimulates the neighbouring nerve endings, which trigger pain and inflammation. The brain chemical, serotonin, has a big part to play in this process as it has been found that serotonin levels drop during migraine. This causes the widening of these blood vessels and the stimulation of the nerve endings.
The pain people suffer varies, and can often be very severe. Although migraine is not life threatening, it impacts on your quality of life. We want to help you find ways to reduce that impact.
Imigran Recovery helps to relieve the root cause of the migraine itself by helping to restore the chemical imbalance and reduce the swelling of blood vessels in the head. It does all this through its active ingredient - sumatriptan.
