Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study is to primarily investigate whether Treximet® (Imitrex RT/naproxen sodium 500mg) taken at the first onset of menstrual migraine will both terminate the acute headache and assist in preventing headache recurrence and the need for repeat abortive therapy over the ensuing days of menses.
