Metoclopramide
by
CraigP
Have to admit, whilst we aren't officially authorised to use metoclop for migraine, its amazing how many migraine sufferers have nausea!
See here for a recent BMJ article on metoclop's efficacy in tx'ting migraine:
Parenteral metoclopramide for acute migraine: meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials
Objective To assess the evidence from controlled trials on the efficacy and tolerability of parenteral metoclopramide for acute migraine in adults.
Conclusions Metoclopramide is an effective treatment for migraine headache and may be effective when combined with other treatments. Given its non-narcotic and antiemetic properties, metoclopramide should be considered a primary agent in the treatment of acute migraines in emergency departments.
