 | There are several very effective prescription medications currently
available from your doctor that will eliminate your migraine after it has
begun. They are available in tablet form as well as a single dose nasal spray.
They do not cause drowsiness. These medications allow you to continue your
work or daily activities without being disrupted from a headache. |
| Other suggestions include applying a cold pack or cloth to your head and
lie down in a quiet, dark area to rest. Don't try to read and avoid odors such
as those from cooking or from tobacco. |
| Keeping a food diary of foods that you have eaten prior to your migraine
may help you to identify those triggers. Keeping track of other possible
contributing factors may also help you to avoid migraine headaches. |
