We didn't like the idea initially of the daily either, but they’ve become so frequent, with no apparent trigger. Where mine were more severe but less frequent, Maxalt and Zomig to an extent, when I tried it, worked for me more or less. My daughters seem a bit less severe but much more frequent. I don't know if you could take a Zomig 4 times a week, and she's had 4 or 5 in a week before unfortunately.

When there is no apparent trigger, be suspicious of a) a food allergy or b) a hormone fluctuation.

1. Have your daughter tested for food allergies, especially gluten. Most insurance companies will pay for it when a neurologist orders it.

2. Have your daughter’s hormone levels tested, not just female hormones such as FSH, estrogen, progesterone, etc., but the entire endocrine system. Seek an endocrinologist for that.
