Do You Suffer From Migraines? Consider Participating in a Local Clinical Trial

Clinical trials help pave the way for new medical treatments. Migraines can be debilitating and for those that are trying to live through the pain, there is a Migraine clinical trial right here in Tampa. ForCare Clinical Research is looking for adults diagnosed with migraine to take part in a research study evaluating an investigational drug to treat migraine. Study-related care may be provided to participants at no cost.

If you suffer from migraines, you’re not alone. Nine out of ten adults in the U.S. suffer from severe headaches, and women are three times more likely than men to develop migraines. Painful headaches can affect individuals occasionally, frequently, or daily. While some are sharp and piercing, others may be dull and throbbing, but most migraines cause severe pain and nausea. What do you do when you suffer from a pounding headache? Usually, NSAIDs like ibuprofen are ineffective at reducing pain, and they certainly don’t address nausea and vomiting that are so commonly associated with migraines. If you have four or more migraine headaches per month, you are at risk for developing chronic migraines.

Several conditions and dietary influences exacerbate migraines. These include:
• Allergies
• Bright lights
• Bulged discs
• Cheese
• Chocolate
• Preservatives
• Hormonal imbalance
• Hypermobility syndrome (joint disorder, usually genetic)
• Neck arthritis
• Red Wine
• Sleep deprivation
• Stress
• Strong odors
• Tight neck and shoulder muscles
• Weather conditions (barometric pressure)

If you suffer from frequent headaches, it’s best to avoid the triggers that cause your specific migraines. Some individuals experience prodrome, which can precede migraine episodes. Some of the prodrome symptoms are fatigue, mood swings, food cravings and environmental stimuli to lighting and odors.

In order for new treatments to become available, clinical trials play a critical role in this process. ForCare Medical Practice has their own Clinical Trials Department and offers trial opportunities to the local area for multiple conditions.
