Allure reports that roughly one billion people worldwide experience migraine headaches. Of them, 28 million are American women.
Nevertheless, at least three women have found pharmaceutical medicines that help them get these dreadful, excruciating headaches under control.
For example, every three months, Rosemary Donohoe gets roughly 40 Botox injections over her face, neck, and scalp.
Botox can also help reduce frequency, severity, and other life-affecting symptoms of migraines such as vertigo and numbness.
Didi Gluck takes a triptan medication. It's a type of drug that stimulates specific serotonin receptors to help stop a migraine attack.
And Sara Spruch-Feiner keeps an eye out for every new treatment coming down the pike.
Right now, she's doing a monthly injection of a preventative treatment known as a CGRP inhibitor which targets a neuropeptide associated with migraines.
