A member asked:
Will doctors always prescribe a pain medication along with migraine med for migraines?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not always: Some people have success with breaking the headache with the migraine med, so they do not need other pain medication. However, others need something to help them get to that point, just depends on the patient and the physician.
