Botox was approved by the FDA in 2010 for the prevention of Chronic Migraine, and Dr. Torphy has been injecting Botox for patients living with Chronic Migraine since 2013.
According to Dr. Torphy, “Most headache physicians feel that Botox should be considered as part of the treatment regimen for patients who experience 15 or more headache days per month.
Of the newer treatments that we have available to help our patients, Botox is the option we have used the longest, so we have the most experience with it. Our experience with Botox gives our patients confidence not only in the treatment, but in our ability to administer it.
I generally recommend patients to give Botox at least three sessions, which are every three months, in order to see how effective it will actually be for them.”
