Migraine drug can also help with symptoms that occur before the actual headache begins

A drug to treat migraine, ubrogepant, is also found to reduce common non-headache symptoms that occur in the hours preceding a migraine headache, according to the results of a large phase three clinical trial published in Nature Medicine. The findings suggest that ubrogepant may be the first acute treatment for the symptoms that occur before migraine, which have a considerable impact on daily function.
