Acute Migraine Treatment
Acute migraine medications relieve headache, nausea, and sensitivity to light or sound, working best when taken at the first sign of pain, particularly in migraines with aura. The choice depends on symptom severity, health conditions, preferences, and available treatments.
Anti-sickness medicines like metoclopramide and prochlorperazine manage migraine nausea and aid painkiller absorption. They are best used at migraine onset.
Simple Painkillers (Analgesics) include Ibuprofen, aspirin, paracetamol, and naproxen to help ease migraine pain and symptoms.
Newer acute migraine drugs such as triptans and gepants are also available.
