migraine meds
Severe headache treatment
Migraine meds are medications used to treat or prevent migraines—severe headaches often accompanied by nausea and sensitivity to light.
The term covers both acute treatments taken during an attack and preventive medications taken regularly: I need to pick up my migraine meds from the pharmacy.
The phrase is casual; clinical contexts prefer "migraine medications" or specific drug names.
