Description

Any patient whose migraines are frequent and severe enough to significantly affect their quality of life should be offered migraine prevention therapy. So says Neurologist Dr Katherine Spira who, in this presentation, will discuss when, how and with what, patients with migraines can be initiated on preventive therapy. In addition, she will recommend how such therapy can be monitored and tailored to suit the individual patient to ensure maximum effectiveness and minimal side effects.
