Case scenario
Chau, a 23-year-old female, requests ‘something strong for migraine’. She tells you she is developing a headache, has sensitivity to light and awful nausea. Chau has been experiencing migraines twice a month since they were originally diagnosed by her doctor 6 months ago. Despite trying paracetamol, ibuprofen and paracetamol/metoclopramide on different occasions, she hasn’t found something that effectively resolves her symptoms. Chau confirms she has no other medical conditions, takes no regular medicines and is not pregnant or breastfeeding.
