"a few months ago, i started getting migraines while on my period due to a change in birth control. i love my new method and did not want to stop it, so i brought up the issue of the migraines to my provider. i&#039;ve tried other nsaids such as regular acetaminophen and even tried excedrin migraine, but acetaminophen did not put even a dent into it. excedrin migraine only worked for 4-5 hours and then it would come back full force sometimes worse. my provider wrote me out for 50mg of ketoprofen, and i take 2 capsules at the onset of a migraine. this nsaid works great. my migraine was gone within an hour, and instead of being bedridden with ice packs on my head, i was actually able to eat and return to my normal activity. it is a god send!"
