Migraine Prevention in Children and Adolescents: Results of an Open Study With a Special Butterbur Root Extract

Abstract

The results and low rate of adverse events in this open prospective migraine prevention study in children and adolescents are similar to the results of two multicenter placebo-controlled butterbur studies in adults. Butterbur root extract shows a potential as an effective and well-tolerated migraine prophylaxis also for children and teenagers.
