sage,

You might want to try something besides Excedrin. It contains caffeine. You can have her take aspirin and Tylenol which is the same as Excedrin Migraine without the caffeine. I tried taking Excedrin for both the pain relief and the caffeine effect until my doctor read me the riot act. He was adamant about minimal caffeine, especially during the more symptomatic stage.

Some research has suggested that a single serving per day of caffeine might be OK.

Read the Excedrin label to understand how much caffeine is in it. I just checked. Each tablet contains 65 mgs of caffeine and 250mgs of aspirin and 250 mgs of acetaminophen That caffeine amount is equal to one shot of StarBucks espresso.
