Migraine ppx : You first see your doctor to make sure this is migraine and not another headaches syndrome or systemic condition. Next step is identification and avoidance of triggers. Depending on severity and frequency of your migraine, daily prophylactic therapy with beta blockers, calcium channel blockers, tcas, anticonvulsants, etc. Can be tried. Triptans +/- naprosyn (naproxen) for abortive therapy.
