When a migraine drags me down, I am prepared with an acute treatment. This is different than a preventive treatment in that I take it only when the migraine occurs. Not on a regular basis. I look at acute medications as a flotation device, it will help you keep afloat and reduce the headache pain. It is important to me to make a regular appointment with my doctor to discuss my acute treatment options. It took awhile to find one that worked for me. But, my most important communication tool was to track and document my migraines over time, so I could discuss effectiveness with my doctor. We adjusted my treatment plan accordingly.
