The beta-blocker eye drop
Timolol or TIMOPTIC® may help relieve migraine headache pain according to
research in JAMA Neurology. While there are several bets-blocker medications
that can be taken by mouth for migraine, they tend to work very
slowly-sometimes hours or days-and are not terribly helpful for migraine
sufferers. TIMOPTIC® eye drops are very quickly absorbed into the blood and
seem to alleviate the pain in most patients
with migraines fairly quickly. Research in underway to determine the best dose
and frequency of these eye drop to help those with migraines.
