Migraine treatments can be divided into two main categories: acute and preventive. Acute treatments aim to relieve symptoms during a migraine attack and may include over-the-counter medications like ibuprofen or acetaminophen, as well as prescription drugs such as triptans. These medications work by narrowing blood vessels and reducing inflammation. Preventive treatments are taken regularly to reduce the frequency and severity of migraines. Options include daily medications like beta-blockers, antidepressants, or anti-seizure drugs. Lifestyle changes, such as maintaining a regular sleep schedule and managing stress, can also help in preventing migraines.
