Yes but: BE careful the number of times that one takes narcotics for the migraine. One needs to point out that is this is happening frequently that your husband needs to see someone for the headache for the correct treatment ot help prevent migraines if indicated or treatment if he gets then infrequently. Best wishes.

Would avoid: Analgesics, especially opioids can lead to a more chronic headache pattern, and it is best that specific migraine indicated medications be employed exclusively. Discuss with your doctor.
