Most women are told to only take Tylenol for a headache while pregnant. Now some doctors are stating that taking one aspirin or ibuprofen "once" in awhile during weeks 8 to 32 would be consider safe. As long as it is not a daily dose of several pills a day. However the safe drug is still Tylenol, unless your doctor prescribes something else stronger.
Ginkgo and feverfew are excellent herbs to cure migraine. However pregnant women should not take these herbs.
Unfortunately, this depends entirely on the person. Some women have an increase in migraines during pregnancy, some women have them go away - and then return once their hormones normalize after birth. Some women have them go away and then find the migraines either don't come back after they've given birth, or experience a large reduction in the number and frequency of them. Some women experience no change it all.
Pregnant women should take as few chemicals as possible.
It says on the package that pregnant women should not use it.
NO. Pregnant women should not take any kind of drug unless it is ok'ed by their OBGYN
== == You may have a migraine, and be pregnant, but migraine is NOT a sign of pregnancy. However, some women who have never experienced migraines before will experience migraines during their pregnancy. And the reverse is also true. Some women who have migraines stop getting them during them pregnancy (and if they are lucky, after childbirth as well!)

It depends on what you are using it for, migraines vs epilepsy. If there are other drugs available to control your seizure disorder, your doctor may suggest using it. But as with all things during pregnancy, the risks and benefits must be weighed. A pregnant woman who has seizures maybe at a greater risk of harming herself and her baby than possible side effects of the drug. If you are using it for migraines your doctor will likely suggest another drug. Topamax has a C rating - There are no studies using TOPAMAX in pregnant women.
Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should not take carnitine supplements.
Do not take any medications while pregnant without talking to your dr first.
