Butalbital is a medication prescribed for headaches, but is known to have negative effects. With this study, the group of individuals with the most common type of headaches (tension headaches) that received chiropractic care ended up being 50% less likely to need the prescription.
Butalbital is not the best option for headache relief.
❌ Butalbital is addictive and can cause dependency and dangerous effects such as intoxication, nausea, and more.
❌Butalbital also contains caffeine, and is also a fever reducer. Fevers are a good thing!
Chiropractic care is a natural and a much safer alternative.
✅ Chiropractic care addresses the root mechanical causes, like joint dysfunction and muscle tension, rather than just masking pain with medication. It offers long-term correction, reduces nerve irritability, and triggers natural painkillers, while also avoiding the risks of drug dependence.
✅has an effect comparable to commonly used first-line prophylactic (medications that prevent diseases) prescription medications for tension-type headache and migraine headache.
