Attacks of menstrual migraine are usually more debilitating, of longer duration, more prone to recurrence, and less responsive to acute treatment than nonmenstrual migraine attacks.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Search for evidence was done in 4 databases that included PubMed, EMBASE, Science Direct, and Web of Science. Eighty\u2010four articles were selected for full text review by 2 separate readers. Thirty\u2010six of the 84 articles were selected for final inclusion. Articles included randomized controlled and open label trials that focused on efficacy of acute and preventative therapies for menstrual migraine. Secondary analyses where excluded because the initial study population was not women with menstrual migraine.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>After final screening, 11 articles were selected for acute and 25 for preventive treatment of menstrual migraine. These were further subdivided into treatment categories. For acute treatment: triptans, combination therapy, prostaglandin synthesis inhibitor, and ergot alkaloids. For preventive treatment: triptans, combined therapy, oral contraceptives, estrogen, nonsteroidal anti\u2010inflammatory drug, phytoestrogen, gonadotropin\u2010releasing hormone agonist, dopamine agonist, vitamin, mineral, and nonpharmacological therapy were selected. Overall, triptans had strong evidence for treatment in both acute and short term prevention of menstrual migraine.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Based on this literature search, of all categories of treatment for menstrual migraine, triptans have the most extensive research with strong evidence for both acute and preventive treatment of menstrual migraine. Further randomized controlled trials should be performed for other therapies to strengthen their use in the care of menstrual migraine patients.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/head.12640","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,8,12]],"date-time":"2015-08-12T06:49:47Z","timestamp":1439362187000},"page":"1052-1071","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":50,"title":["Systematic Review of Preventive and Acute Treatment of Menstrual Migraine"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"55","author":[{"given":"Hida del C.","family":"Nierenburg","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Medstar Georgetown University Hospital Washington DC USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jessica","family":"Ailani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medstar Georgetown University Hospital Washington DC USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michele","family":"Malloy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Dalghren Library, Georgetown University School of Medicine Washington DC USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sara","family":"Siavoshi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medstar Georgetown University Hospital Washington DC USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nancy N.","family":"Hu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medstar Georgetown University Hospital Washington DC USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nadia","family":"Yusuf","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medstar Georgetown University Hospital Washington DC USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,8,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1517\/14656566.2014.947959"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/pnp.192"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0333102413485658"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1212\/01.wnl.0000310638.54698.36"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1129-2377-14-7"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/WCO.0b013e3282fd185e"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10194-012-0455-4"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0333102410378048"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/09513590.2010.487607"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1468-1331.2005.01076.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1526-4610.2004.04027.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0029-7844(03)00659-8"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2165\/00023210-200620120-00005"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1526-4610.2008.01092.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10072-013-1390-0"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_17_1","first-page":"176","article-title":"Treatment of menstrual migraine with prostaglandin synthesis inhibitor mefenamic acid: Double\u2010blind study with placebo","volume":"5","author":"Al\u2010Waili NS.","year":"2000","journal-title":"Eur J Med Res"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_18_1","first-page":"145","article-title":"Subcutaneous dihydroergotamine mesylate (DHE) in the treatment of menstrual migraine","volume":"7","author":"Diamond S","year":"1996","journal-title":"Headache"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_19_1","unstructured":"HigginsJPT GreenS eds.Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions Version 5.1.0.
