Butterbur root has been used traditionally since the Middle Ages, and in North America during colonial times as a heart stimulant, acting both as a cardiac tonic and also as a diuretic, to treat fevers, wheezing and colds. Modern research supports that butterbur root extract may be useful in treating the symptoms of seasonal rhinitis (allergies), asthma and prevent migraines.
The number of migraine attacks during a 4-month treatment period was recorded for each subject and compared to the number of attacks the subjects suffered before treatment. Those people who received 75-milligrams of butterbur extract had an average of 45% fewer migraine attacks per month. The 50-milligram butterbur dose resulted in 32% fewer migraine attacks per month. The only significant side effect of butterbur was more frequent burping.
Dr. Lipton and his co-workers suggest two ways that butterbur may reduce migraines:
Butterbur may decrease inflammation of blood vessels and other tissues that cause pain.
Calcium channels on neurons help regulate the release of neurotransmitters in the brain. Some migraines may be caused by abnormalities in calcium channels. Butterbur may work on calcium channels to alter abnormal neurotransmitter release.
Take 1 capsule 3 times daily for 4 weeks, then reduce to 1 capsule 2 times daily afterward.
Adolescents 10-17 years of age: 1 capsule 2 times daily.
