How it works

There is a significant body of research to support the use of feverfew in the prevention of migraine. It has been found to produce a significant reduction in the number and severity of attacks experienced by sufferers, as well as to reduce associated symptoms. The main active constituent of feverfew is thought to be parthenolide.

Migraine headaches are characterised by constriction followed by dilation in cerebral blood vessels. Feverfew has a tonic effect on smooth muscle. Smooth muscle tissue is a component of blood vessel walls.

It has been shown that during a migraine there is an increase in platelet aggregation (this is when platelet particles in the blood become added together). Feverfew has been shown to inhibit platelet aggregation.

Feverfew inhibits the production of inflammatory compounds such as prostaglandins, leukotrienes and thromboxanes. It also inhibits the secretion of histamine and serotonin which are involved in allergic and inflammatory responses in the body.
