Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 10
Abstract
Migraine is a syndrome of acute recurrent episodes of headaches, has a high prevalence and is the third cause of disability in under 50s population. Migraine commonly affects age group between 35 to 45 years, is twice as more common in females and a positive family history is present in 60% of the cases. Migraine causes impaired quality of personal and social life of the patient. It also has significant financial cost in terms of disability-adjusted life years. The present study was conducted to evaluate the combined efficacy of Homeopathic medicine and Yoga therapy in the management of Migraine in 10 patients. Homoeopathic medicines were prescribed in 30/200/1M potency after detailed case taking, case analysis and repertorization. The medicines dosage was as per case requirement. A Yoga module was prescribed to the patients to be practiced daily. Patients reported statistically significant decrease in number of Headache days per month (P=0.0037) as well as HIT-6 score (P=0.0001) from baseline to six months. The results of this study suggest that a combination of Individualized Homoeopathy and Yoga could be a valid treatment option for migraine, particularly in patients who cannot tolerate standardized drug therapy or remain un-responsive to it.
