Naratriptan and Rizatriptan act to reverse the dilation of the blood vessels in the brain and so help arrest the headache.
Naratriptan (1 mg twice daily), beginning 2 days before anticipated menses and continuing for 5 days, reduced the number of MM attacks by 50%, with side effects comparable to placebo.

naratriptan, rizatriptan, almotriptan and fravatriptan may prove more effective.
