Arms Assigned Interventions
1: Placebo Comparator
Placebo taken at onset of aura associated with migraine.
Drug: placebo
Subjects will be randomized before treatment. Subjects will take one sumatriptan 85mg/naprosyn 500mg tablets (Treximet) or placebo at onset of a migraine aura. Dose to be repeated at 2 hours if no effect in preventing onset of migraine pain.
2: Active Comparator
Sumatriptan with naprosyn taken at onset of aura associated with migraine.
Drug: sumatriptan with naprosyn
Subjects will be randomized before treatment. Subjects will take one sumatriptan 85mg/naprosyn 500mg tablets (Treximet) or placebo at onset of a migraine aura. Dose to be repeated at 2 hours if no effect in preventing onset of migraine pain.
