Treatment usually involves both acute and preventive strategies: Acute Treatment For immediate relief, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like ibuprofen or naproxen may be used. Triptans, which are a class of drugs specifically designed to treat migraines, can also be effective. Preventive Treatment Hormonal therapies, such as continuous use of oral contraceptives to prevent the drop in estrogen, may be helpful. Additionally, lifestyle modifications, including stress management, regular exercise, and dietary changes, can play a supportive role in preventing migraines. In some cases, supplements like magnesium and riboflavin have shown promise.
