If you’ve ever experienced a migraine, you know that it’s no ordinary headache. Characterized by severe pain, sensitivity to light and sound, and uncomfortable symptoms like nausea, migraines can turn your day on its head and leave you suffering in bed.
Between 3% and 5% of Americans suffer from chronic migraines and related symptoms, and many of them are searching for something that can prevent or relieve their symptoms. If you struggle with migraines, we want you to know that you’re not alone and that Lone Star IV Medics can help.
Our Most Popular IV For Migraines and Headaches
IV Therapy for Migraine Relief
IV therapy for migraines can be effective at managing symptoms associated with migraines and headaches. IVs send medication directly into the bloodstream, which allows the body to absorb it more quickly and in higher quantities than with an oral pill or supplement.
Whether you're suffering from nausea, dizziness, pain or other symptoms, our IV treatment for headaches and migraines can help you feel relief in just 30 to 45 minutes. Plus, when you get an IV from Lone Star IV Medics, you don’t even have to leave your home! We’ll send a team of healthcare providers to your home to administer your IV and help you manage your symptoms right from your living room.
What Triggers Migraines?
There are many potential causes of migraines. These can include:
- Hormone changes (particularly during menstruation, pregnancy or menopause)
- Alcohol use
- Stressful situations
- Sensory stimuli like flashing lights or strong smells
- Intense physical exertion
- Lack of sleep
- Allergic reactions to food
- Severe weather changes
While the cause of your migraine may vary, many people can find relief with the right vitamins, which is exactly why IV therapy for migraines is worth a try.
Our Most Popular IV For Migraines and Headaches
Our most popular IV for migraines or headaches is the Myers' Cocktail, often referred to as a “migraine cocktail” for its effectiveness. The influx of vitamins and hydration should help you feel better and alleviate your migraine symptoms. Its ingredients include:
- Normal saline: This 0.9% sodium chloride solution includes sterile water and salt and can alleviate dehydration, a common contributor to and cause of migraines. You can select our purely saline IV package if you want pure fluids without additional vitamins and nutrients.
- B complex: Research results have shown that B complex can help improve migraines and headaches.
- Vitamin B12: Research on vitamin B12 suggests that it can reduce the severity of migraine with aura. Vitamin B12 is also a common treatment for preventing migraines from occurring.
- Vitamin C: For each additional 1 mg per day in dietary vitamin C intake, studies showed a 6% lower risk for severe headaches and migraines.
- Glutathione: If you are low on glutathione, you are more vulnerable to migraines and headaches. It also supports energy levels and overall well-being.
- Zinc: With its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, zinc can potentially alleviate migraines and is well known for supporting the immune system and many other important roles in the body.
- Magnesium: Magnesium sulfate can help relieve pain and nausea in patients with aura migraines and reduce sensitivity to light and sound in patients with aura migraines without aura. Regular use also effectively prevents migraines.
Try the Myers' Cocktail for migraines because you deserve to feel better.
Customize Your IV With Vitamins and Add-Ins
We also offer a variety of vitamin and add-in packages you can use to target your specific symptoms and help you reach your health goals. Our medical professionals can help guide you toward the add-ins to best support your needs, such as vitamins to relieve nausea or minerals to support your energy levels. For migraine IV therapy, the most popular medications are:
- Toradol: This anti-inflammatory medication, also known as ketorolac, is more potent than ibuprofen, which makes it a more effective pain reliever for migraine sufferers.
- Reglan: Reglan, or metoclopramide, can be effective in reducing headaches and migraines and decreasing nausea.
