Hi!!!dont ever take ibuprofen.consult a doctor.you know for migrainne there is no cure,research is still going on.the only thing is you should be able to recognise the factors that trigger migrainne.i guess you suffer from severe attacks of migrainne.whennever you feel the headache is going to start you just take painkiller.there some symtoms before the attacks.i feel the pain in my eyes & immediately i take crocin pain relief.& if its too late the headache starts& no option than to stay with it.the headache lasts for 2-3 days & its killin.
