verapamil and Migraine with Aura

verapamil has been researched along with Migraine with Aura in 10 studies

Verapamil: A calcium channel blocker that is a class IV anti-arrhythmia agent.
verapamil : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of dexverapamil and (S)-verapamil. An L-type calcium channel blocker of the phenylalkylamine class, it is used (particularly as the hydrochloride salt) in the treatment of hypertension, angina pectoris and cardiac arrhythmia, and as a preventive medication for migraine.
2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-5-{[2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl](methyl)amino}-2-(propan-2-yl)pentanenitrile : A tertiary amino compound that is 3,4-dimethoxyphenylethylamine in which the hydrogens attached to the nitrogen are replaced by a methyl group and a 4-cyano-4-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-5-methylhexyl group.

Migraine with Aura: A subtype of migraine disorder, characterized by recurrent attacks of reversible neurological symptoms (aura) that precede or accompany the headache. Aura may include a combination of sensory disturbances, such as blurred VISION; HALLUCINATIONS; VERTIGO; NUMBNESS; and difficulty in concentrating and speaking. Aura is usually followed by features of the COMMON MIGRAINE, such as PHOTOPHOBIA; PHONOPHOBIA; and NAUSEA. (International Classification of Headache Disorders, 2nd ed. Cephalalgia 2004: suppl 1)

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"A 20-year-old female with hemiplegic migraine was treated during an acute attack with intravenous verapamil, which reproducibly resolved the headache within 20 min but did not affect her hemiplegia."3.74Hemiplegic migraine: hyperperfusion and abortive therapy with intravenous verapamil. ( Dulli, DA; Hsu, DA; Kiff, JE; Rowley, HA; Stafstrom, CE, 2008)
"Three children with familial hemiplegic migraine presented with right-sided weakness, speech difficulty, altered mental status, and gait abnormalities."1.38Variable manifestations of familial hemiplegic migraine associated with reversible cerebral edema in children. ( Asghar, SJ; Glasier, C; Kaushik, C; Milesi-Hallé, A; Sharp, GB, 2012)
"We report a case of familial hemiplegic migraine with prolonged aura where multimodality imaging showed hemispheric cytotoxic edema along with evidence of hypometabolism in the affected hemisphere while there was no evidence of hypoperfusion of the affected hemisphere demonstrating that neuronal depression is a more plausible explanation in its pathogenesis."1.35Familial hemiplegic migraine with prolonged aura and multimodality imaging: a case report. ( Kumar, G; Maytal, J; Topper, L, 2009)
"A 60-year-old woman with secondary chronic cluster headache had increased serum ferritin and serum transferrin saturation and was homozygous for the C282Y mutation in the HFE gene, which is indicative of hereditary haemochromatosis."1.31Hereditary haemochromatosis in two cousins with cluster headache. ( Bjerve, KS; Hagen, K; Stovner, LJ; Waage, A, 2002)
