    I was originally given butterbur in the form of the perscription "Petadolex" by my doctor. I have been using it for migraines for 3 years, and it is very effective. When I started using it, my migraines went from 4-6 a week to 1 or 2 a month. When I stop using it, the migraines return.

    I have had 100+migraines/year since age 14. I started Petadolex 2 months ago, taking 150 mg./day. I have had an increase in the migraines and very bad IBS-type symptoms with lots of abdominal cramps. I will try to continue for 4 months to see if it helps over a longer term. I'd be interested to hear if anyone else has had this experience.

    Before taking this with other herbs, relaxation, etc. I used to have migraine headaches at least once a month. After taking this and as I mentioned before other herbs, I don't get as much migraines or they are not as severe.
