Butterbur Supplement 150 mg | 180 Capsules | PA Free Root Extract | Petasites Hybridus | Non-GMO and Gluten Free

I've suffered from migraine headaches for most of my life. Unfortunately, I've passed that on to our daughter's. I also take a prescription medication for migraines but that's limited to 13 doses per month for some absolutely ridiculous reason. So I try not to take my prescription, which is also horribly expensive. I learned about butterbur for migraines about 20 years ago and have taken it off and on for those 20 years. Unfortunately, in my opinion, some manufacturers or sellers completely take advantage of the fact that nothing else, over the counter, really helps migraine sufferers so they really take advantage when it comes to price. They should understand that having a reasonably priced product means more people will buy it, and they'll buy it regularly. I was very pleasantly surprised to get this VERY reasonably priced product, that actually works incredibly well for my migraines! I'm hoping it becomes available again really soon because I'll most definitely reorder for myself and our younger daughter. I have several kinds of migraine, I have more chronic migraines (up to 15 migraine days per month). I also have visual migraines (also called silent migraines) which aren't painful but very much affect your field of vision to the point where you definitely can't drive and walking is difficult because your field of vision is affected so much. I have migraines with severe nausea and vomiting. I have uncomplicated migraines (without any other symptoms), and I have basilar type migraine (with aura & other disturbances as well as nausea and vomiting). This is an excellent product that helps me emensely with my migraine headaches! If I can take this and avoid even taking my prescription, I'm glad. I'd definitely recommend this product to anyone who suffers with migraine headaches. If it works, great! If by chance it doesn't, you really haven't lost anything but have just eliminated one thing. I would suggest for those who find it doesn't work for them, to try this product, or any butterbur product daily, not as an emergency relief product. That's how physicians recommended using it, as a daily preventative. Two capsules daily as a preventative, not using it just when you feel a migraine coming on. For many people, using it as an emergency relief medication simply doesn't work, they actually have to have it build up in their system to prevent migraines. I'm fortunate, for me it does work about half the time, when I feel a migraine coming on! Very highly recommended!

Verified Purchase After struggling with frequent tension headaches, Carlyle Butterbur has been a game-changer! The 150mg capsules are easy to swallow with no unpleasant aftertaste. Within two weeks of consistent use, I noticed a significant reduction in both headache frequency and intensity—especially my weather-triggered migraines. Also, a great sinus support. The herb’s natural anti-inflammatory properties seem to work gently without the stomach upset I got from OTC pain relievers. While the capsules have a mild, earthy smell when opening the bottle, there’s no lingering taste. The bottle size is generous (180 capsules), offering great value for a 3-6 month supply depending on dosage. As someone cautious about supplements, I appreciate Carlyle’s commitment to quality and purity. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a natural path to headache relief!

I am really excited about taking this Butterbur to avoid migraines! I have suffered with migraines since 1980, just before I turned thirty. I tried Feverfew and my face broke out and the number of migraines did not diminish. I learned the best meds for treating them, but not to have fewer even though docs tried all the typical prophylactic meds. After I became disabled, the migraines became chronic - rarely did more than a day or two pass by without a debilitating, miserable migraine. I don’t do as much research as I used to because of poor and painful eyesight, but a new doctor who saw that I have used Turmeric and Chlorella Spirulina long term, suggested trying Butterbur. Thanks to all the other users for your great reviews! After reading them, I immediately ordered enough Butterbur for a couple month’s trial. I am so very pleased! After just the first day, I could sense a difference and I was expecting to take maybe 7 or 10 days like you have to with many prescription remedies! I went for THREE WEEKS without a migraine that required an injection of Sumatriptan! Unfortunately, that was a bad one that lasted for two days and required 2 injections, but I was having those several times a month along with milder, but miserable ones every few days! It’s now going on another ten days without a migraine and I am truly hopeful that, at long last, we’ve discovered a prophylactic that works against my migraines! I was also hopeful that I would perhaps notice a diminishing of my chronic, body pains, my seasonal allergies and even my GI Distress that keeps me pampering my GI System because some folks’ reviews mention those. Honestly, I have not observed any changes except for the frequency of migraines, but that’s enough of a miracle for me! If you’ve been told to try this for other problems, I’d suggest you give it a try. From what I have read, there are no known severe, serious, moderate or minor interactions with other drugs. There are warnings about using with other natural preparations, so do check for those. There is also a warning I just found: Contains pyrrolizidine alkaloids (especially in roots), which may be carcinogenic and hepatotoxic (commercial preparations are generally pyrrolizidine-free). This cautionary statement is NOT related to this brand or any other, but I see from the label that this brand, Carlyle, is PA free, non-GMO, and has a list of common additives that they do NOT use. Carlyle Butterbur is a reasonable price and pays attention to leaving out the sweeteners, preservatives and other chemicals that I try to avoid and it provides me with a life of fewer migraines! I will continue taking this product with gratitude for Carlyle and my doctor!
