I have also heard of possible side effects of using cafegot-that it can induce more migraines. In the 9 years that I've been on this medication, there are some occassions where migraines returned within 2 days after it got better with cafegot. But in general, it still works very well for me with no major side effects.

My GP says that a possible side effect of using cafegot is that it can induce more migraines, causing it to become a vicious cycle. When I get a migraine, I take cafegot. But cafegot induces more migraine. Is that true?
