Brief Answer:
Vasograin is not safe if taken daily.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for posting your query.

You seem to be suffering from migraine. Since you have frequent headaches, you should be on preventive medications, to reduce the severity and frequency of headaches. Good options include flunarizine, Topiramate, divalproex, etc.

Vasograin should be used as and when necessary, and not more than 15 tablets per month.

I hope it helps. Please get back if you have any more queries.

Best wishes,
Dr Sudhir Kumar MD DM (Neurology) XXXXXXX Consultant Neurologist
