Know Your Options for Treating Acute Migraine in the Office
April 2026
You can help take the pain out of managing acute migraine episodes for adults in the office...when oral meds aren’t an option.
Consider subcutaneous sumatriptan, or intranasal sumatriptan or zolmitriptan, if patients haven’t tried a triptan yet and don’t have a contraindication (prior MI or stroke, uncontrolled hypertension, etc).
Keep in mind that adding an NSAID or acetaminophen to a triptan often works better than either med alone.
