MedHead Message:
Coenzyme Q10 helps prevent migraine headaches if taken daily. Start with 400mg and increase to 800 mg daily for migraine prevention. Don’t forget to take it with magnesium 500mg daily. Consider adding on Riboflavin (vitamin B2) 400mg daily. You need to take it for at least 2-3 months to see the difference.
