Cafergot

Cafergot is a medication consisting of ergotamine tartrate and caffeine. It is used for the treatment of vascular headaches, such as migraines.

Timing of the use of this medication is essential, as it will not work if taken too late into the migraine headache. Cafergot is used to abort a migraine not to prevent a migraine.
