With any abortive medication, the earlier in the attack you are able to take the medication, the stronger chance it has to work. Magnesium may be able to act as an abortive in even a two day migraine when provided as a rapid infusion via IV - able to get into the body's tissues more easily. At two days into the migraine, other medications may need to be paired with the magnesium.
Normal magnesium supplements are meant as preventative treatment for migraines. When you are deficient in magnesium (or many other nutrients), it takes time to build your levels up to a place where your body is consistently getting what you need so that it can work efficiently.

There are medicines out there that can stop migraines, and if he has them more than two times a month there are medicines that can help reduce their frequency. Ibuprofen and Tylenol often do not work for migraine sufferers. Then need specific migraine medicines, or hard-hitting pain killers - the kind prescribed by a doctor. (Fioricet w/codeine or Ultram are two of the main options for treating migraine pain)If he really doesn't want to go to the doctor, ask him to take Magnesium every day, and vitamin B2. They may help reduce the frequency of his migraines. During a migraine attack, he can try Gelstat Migraine. It is an herbal remedy that can have the same effect as many of the prescribed treatments. Feverfew - which constricts the blood vessels (blood vessels becoming wide is part of what causes such pain during a migraine) and ginger - which helps with nausea._____________________________no but you can put and icepack on your head and go to sleep. but if that does not work you can go to the E.R. and get a shot for it.

Not all the time. But medicines do help the pain to be less painful.There are many effective migraine medications available and most do resolve a migraine. You need to try them out with your doctor's help until you find the one that works with your particular biochemistry. What works for one person may not work for another. Also important is that you need to work hard to identify your own migraine triggers and eliminate them as much as possible.
