Role of Phytocompounds for Effective Management of Migraine: Current and Future Prospectives.

Migraine is one of the most painful and debilitating conditions, which is characterized by a pulsating headache. Many therapeutic strategies are being used to prevent and treat the symptoms and underlying pathology. A relatively high number of different medications are currently being used for migraine prevention in clinical practice. However, these compounds were initially developed for other indications and were different in their mechanisms of action. This review mainly summarized all the conventional and phytocompounds currently present for the treatment of migraine. Further, we also discussed therapeutic potential and clinical studies of natural compounds for the treatment of migraine prophylaxis under various chemical categories like flavonoids, polyphenols, alkaloids, glycosides, terpenoids, and lactone, acid, and alcohol.
