“How long do migraines last in children? Typically?”

Migraines in children, just as in adults, can last hours to days. When they last more than a day, we call it status migrainosus. When this is the case, and if they are frequent, we usually recommend a preventative treatment. A daily medication to reduce the severity and frequency of the migraines. It is also important to find a rescue medication to treat the migraines. The more effective the drug, the less likely the recurrence.
