Gastrointestinal manifestations of migraine: Meeting the treatment challenges

Abstract

Nausea is a defining feature of episodic migraine. Migraine-associated nausea can cause patients to delay or avoid taking oral medication. In April 2011, a round table of headache specialists and a gastroenterologist was convened to explore unmet needs in the treatment of migraine vis-à-vis gastrointestinal signs and symptoms. This supplement summarizes the proceedings of that roundtable meeting. © 2013 American Headache Society.
