Amber is a 24-year-old patient who has had migraines for 10 years. She reports a migraine on average of once a month. The migraines are effectively aborted with naratriptan (Amerge). When refilling Amber's naratriptan, education would include:
 
  1. Naratriptan will interact with antidepressants, including selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and St John's wort, and she should inform any providers she sees that she has migraines.
  2. Continue to monitor her headaches, if the migraine is consistently happening around her menses there is preventive therapy available.
  3. Pregnancy is contraindicated when taking a triptan.
  4. All of the above

Question 2

Migraines in pregnancy may be safely treated with:
 
  1. Acetaminophen with codeine (Tylenol 3)
  2. Sumatriptan (Imitrex)
  3. Ergotamine tablets (Ergostat)
  4. Dihydroergotamine (DHE)
