BET 2: Treating migraines with diclofenac instead of a triptan
Abstract
A shortcut review was carried out to establish whether diclofenac is better than a triptan in treating migraine. 32 papers were found of which only 1 addressed this question. The author, date and country of publication, patient group studied, study type, relevant outcomes, results and study weaknesses of this paper are tabulated. It is concluded that there is insufficient evidence that either treatment is superior to the other for migraine therapy.
