What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

Migra-None contains 2 active ingredients: feverfew and ginger. Feverfew is a plant traditionally used for migraine-type headaches, and ginger is a rhizome with a long history in herbal medicine for nausea and inflammation.

The capsules are made with gelatin, cellulose, silica, and vegetable stearate as inactive ingredients.

Does it work?

Insufficient evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Insufficient

There isn't enough reliable clinical evidence to rate this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Migraine headache prevention and relief.
  • We looked for evidence on: Migraine headache, Tension headache, Headache, Feverfew efficacy.
  • The closest evidence on file: Feverfew is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Tension headache (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Ginger is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Migraine headache.

The evidence for these ingredients is mixed. Feverfew's effectiveness for tension headaches is rated as insufficient reliable evidence — meaning we don't have enough strong research to confirm it works.

Ginger shows possibly effective evidence for pregnancy-related nausea and vomiting and dysmenorrhea (menstrual pain), and possibly effective for osteoarthritis, but is rated possibly ineffective for exercise-induced muscle soreness and chemotherapy-induced nausea.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Feverfew Ginger

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Feverfew is generally well tolerated short-term, but chewing fresh leaves is more likely to cause mouth ulcers and irritation than commercial preparations. Common side effects include abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, nausea, and heartburn.

Stopping feverfew after long-term use may trigger post-feverfew syndrome — anxiety, headaches, and insomnia. Avoid feverfew during pregnancy, as it may stimulate the uterus, and avoid while breastfeeding due to insufficient safety data.

Ginger is generally well tolerated at typical food and supplement doses. Higher doses (5 grams per day or more) increase the risk of side effects.

Common effects include abdominal discomfort, burping, diarrhea, heartburn, and a pepper-like mouth irritation. Ginger is likely safe in pregnancy for morning sickness, though you should check with your doctor and keep amounts moderate.

It's likely safe while breastfeeding, but data is limited.

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Feverfew, Ginger.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 1,084 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before taking Migra-None, double-check with your pharmacist if you're on blood thinners (warfarin, phenprocoumon, or antiplatelet drugs) — both ingredients increase bleeding risk. Also flag diabetes medications, as ginger may lower blood sugar.

If you take nifedipine (a heart medication), losartan (blood pressure), or any drugs heavily processed by your liver's CYP3A4 enzyme, get clarification first. No interactions are documented for ingredients we were unable to check.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with insufficient evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Migra-None may be worth considering if you're looking for herbal support for tension headaches or migraine-related nausea, but the evidence for feverfew specifically is not strong. The main caution is if you take blood thinners, diabetes medications, heart medications like nifedipine or losartan, or drugs your liver processes heavily — the interactions are real and worth reviewing.

Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product, especially if you're on any prescription medications.

Ginger14 drug types · 1,007 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Ginger may have antiplatelet effects and may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs. However, research is conflicting.
Laboratory research suggests that ginger inhibits thromboxane synthetase and decreases platelet aggregation. However, this has not been demonstrated unequivocally in humans, with mixed results from clinical trials. Theoretically, excessive amounts of ginger might increase the risk of bleeding when used with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking ginger with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Animal and human research suggests that ginger might increase insulin levels and/or decrease blood glucose levels.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Ginger might increase or decrease the levels of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro research and some case reports suggest that ginger inhibits CYP3A4 activity. Three case reports from the World Health Organization (WHO) adverse drug reaction database describe increased toxicity in patients taking ginger and cancer medications that are CYP3A4 substrates (imatinib, dabrafenib, and crizotinib). However, the causality of this interaction is unclear due to the presence of multiple interacting drugs and routes of administration.
Conversely, other in vitro research suggests that ginger induces CYP3A4 activity, leading to reduced levels of CYP3A4 substrates. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Losartan (Cozaar)

Theoretically, ginger might increase levels of losartan and the risk of hypotension.
In animal research, ginger increased the levels and hypotensive effects of a single dose of losartan. It is not clear if ginger alters the concentration or effects of losartan when taken continuously. Additionally, this interaction has not been shown in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Nifedipine (Procardia)

Ginger may have antiplatelet effects and increase the risk of bleeding if used with nifedipine.
Clinical research shows that combined treatment with ginger 1 gram plus nifedipine 10 mg significantly inhibits platelet aggregation when compared to nifedipine or ginger alone.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
P-Glycoprotein Substrates

Ginger might increase the absorption and blood levels of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrates.
In vitro research and case reports suggest that ginger inhibits drug efflux by P-gp, potentially increasing absorption and serum levels of P-gp substrates. Two case reports from the World Health Organization (WHO) adverse drug reaction database describe increased toxicity in patients taking ginger and cancer medications that are P-gp substrates (trametinib, crizotinib). However, the causality of this interaction is unclear due to the presence of multiple interacting drugs and routes of administration.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Phenprocoumon (Marcoumar, Others)

Ginger might increase the risk of bleeding with phenprocoumon.
Phenprocoumon, a warfarin-related anticoagulant, might increase the international normalized ratio (INR) when taken with ginger. There is one case report of a 76-year-old woman with a stable INR on phenprocoumon that increased to greater than 10 when she began consuming dried ginger and ginger tea.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Ginger might increase the risk of bleeding with warfarin.
Laboratory research suggests that ginger might inhibit thromboxane synthetase and decrease platelet aggregation. In one case report, ginger increased the INR when taken with phenprocoumon, which has similar pharmacological effects as warfarin. In another case report, ginger increased the INR when taken with a combination of warfarin, hydrochlorothiazide, and acetaminophen. A longitudinal analysis suggests that taking ginger increases the risk of bleeding in patients taking warfarin for at least 4 months. However, research in healthy people suggests that ginger has no effect on INR, or the pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics of warfarin. Until more is known, monitor INRs closely in patients taking large amounts of ginger.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Calcium Channel Blockers

Theoretically, taking ginger with calcium channel blockers might increase the risk of hypotension.
Some animal and in vitro research suggests that ginger has hypotensive and calcium channel-blocking effects. Another animal study shows that concomitant administration of ginger and the calcium channel blocker amlodipine leads to greater reductions in blood pressure when compared with amlodipine alone.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune)

Theoretically, when taken prior to cyclosporine, ginger might decrease cyclosporine levels.
In an animal model, ginger juice taken 2 hours prior to cyclosporine administration reduced the maximum concentration and area under the curve of cyclosporine by 51% and 40%, respectively. This effect was not observed when ginger juice and cyclosporine were administered at the same time.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, ginger might increase the levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that ginger inhibits CYP1A2 activity. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2B6 (Cyp2B6) Substrates

Theoretically, ginger might increase the levels of CYP2B6 substrates.
In vitro research shows that ginger inhibits CYP2B6 activity. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, ginger might increase the levels of CYP2C9 substrates.
In vitro research shows that ginger inhibits CYP2C9 activity. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Metronidazole (Flagyl)

Theoretically, ginger might increase levels of metronidazole.
In an animal model, ginger increased the absorption and plasma half-life of metronidazole. In addition, the elimination rate and clearance of metronidazole was significantly reduced.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Ginger full monograph & interactions

Feverfew7 drug types · 929 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, feverfew might have additive effects and increase the risk of bleeding when used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Laboratory research suggests that feverfew may inhibit platelet aggregation. Additionally, in one case report, a 36-year-old patient taking feverfew 2400 mg daily for 3 months experienced vaginal bleeding and a prolonged menstrual cycle, with a modest increase in partial thromboplastin time (PTT) and prothrombin time (PT).

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, feverfew might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
Laboratory research shows that feverfew might inhibit CYP1A2. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C19 (Cyp2C19) Substrates

Theoretically, feverfew might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C19.
Laboratory research shows that feverfew might inhibit CYP2C19. So far, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C8 (Cyp2C8) Substrates

Theoretically, feverfew might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C8.

Migra-None by Douglas Laboratories: Common Questions

Does Migra-None by Douglas Laboratories interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Migra-None has a known interaction with 1,083 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Migra-None contains 2 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Can I take Migra-None if I'm on a blood thinner like warfarin?
No — both feverfew and ginger may increase your bleeding risk with warfarin or similar blood thinners. This is a Moderate-severity interaction backed by case reports. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product if you're on any anticoagulant or antiplatelet drug.
Will Migra-None help my tension headaches?
Feverfew is traditionally used for headaches, but the evidence for tension headaches is rated insufficient reliable evidence, meaning we don't have strong research to confirm it works. Your results may vary, and it's worth discussing with your doctor whether it's worth trying.
What are the most common side effects of taking this product?
Feverfew most commonly causes abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, nausea, and heartburn. Ginger typically causes abdominal discomfort, burping, diarrhea, heartburn, and a peppery mouth irritation. Chewing fresh feverfew leaves increases the risk of mouth ulcers.
Is Migra-None safe to take during pregnancy?
Feverfew should be avoided — it may stimulate the uterus and its safety in pregnancy isn't established. Ginger is likely safe for pregnancy-related nausea, but check with your doctor first and keep the amount moderate.
Can I stop taking Migra-None anytime, or will I have withdrawal symptoms?
Stopping feverfew after long-term use may cause post-feverfew syndrome, which includes anxiety, headaches, and insomnia. If you've been taking this regularly, talk to your doctor about how to stop safely.
Can I take Migra-None with my diabetes medication?
Ginger may increase insulin levels and lower blood sugar, so there's a Moderate-severity risk of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) if taken with diabetes drugs. Check with your pharmacist before combining them.
