Aspirin can relieve acute migraine 

Comment: aspirin is certainly among the safest of pharmaceutical pain relievers. That said, migraine headaches can be prevented with a daily dose of feverfew, a very safe herb. Also migraine headaches can be treated and prevented quite effectively with acupuncture.

Individuals who suffer from acute migraine headaches are likely to find relief with aspirin, according to results of a new study.
'Aspirin is a rational' over-the-counter (OTC) choice for people who have migraine, the authors of the research write in the journal Headache.
More than 50 percent of migraine sufferers rely on OTC medications for the treatment of their migraine pain and, along with other OTC products, aspirin is considered by the US Headache Consortium to be an option for first-line migraine treatment. Yet few published studies have evaluated aspirin use for migraine headache.
