WHY COFFEE CAN HELP
Caffeine is the cheapest, easiest, most available drug to treat a migraine. It constricts blood vessels which can decrease pain. If you feel a migraine coming on, try drinking a cup or two of strong black coffee or a caffeinated soft drink, a simple treatment that works for many people.
Caffeine can be so effective that many over-the-counter migraine medications include it as an ingredient, including Anadin Extra.
Caffeine also helps you absorb other medications, which is another reason why it is included in some of these medications. And it is a brain stimulant so it can help you think better if you're in a migraine fog.
