Headaches from Milk Thistle

[ScoobyDoo]

I'd appreciate any feedback.

I started taking Milk Thistle about a week ago and had my first AF yesterday. I've had bad headaches for the past 3 days. Has anyone else experienced headaches from the Milk Thistle, and if so does it pass?

Dear DooDoo,

Might not be the milk thistle, but rather the first AF day....just a thought. I had headaches the first AF WEEK!

DooDoo - how long have you been AF? Headaches are very common during the first week or so of being off of the alcohol. I had them for quite a few days. This will pass! Drink lots of water.

I just had my first AF yesterday, but have had the headaches for days. Have been taking the Milk Thistle for about 7 days or so.

The dosage is 6g (6000mg) or 70mg (calculaed as siybin)

It must be the milk thistle and not enough water. Better go and refill my glass with the good stuff now. Thanks!

Doo, I am no doctor but that sounds like WAY too much milk thistle. At the most I take 900mg a day. That could be the problem. Even for this program she recommends 300-600 mg a day, 600 if you are not abstaining.
