b

Answer to Question 2

A
Beta blockers such as propranolol are the preferred drugs for migraine prevention. Treatment can reduce the number and intensity of attacks in approximately 70 of patients.
Sumatriptan, ergotamine, and dihydroergotamine all are indicated to abort ongoing migraines, not prevent them.
