    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Pain Relief at 2 Hours After Dose
    Patients reporting pain relief defined as a reduction of headache severity from grades 2 or 3 (moderate or severe pain) at baseline to grades 0 or 1 (no headache or mild pain) at 2 hours after treatment
    Time to Relief Within 2 Hours After Dose
    Patients reporting time to relief defined as the first time point at which a patient reported headache severity grade 1 or 0 (mild pain or no headache) within 2 hours after dose

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Pain Free at 2 Hours After Dose
    Patients pain free (defined as a reduction of headache severity to grade 0 [no pain]) at 2 hours after treatment. Each patient rated headache severity on a 4-point scale (0 = no headache; 1 = mild pain; 2 = moderate pain; 3 = severe pain).
    Functional Status at 2 Hours After Dose
    Patients with no functional disability measured by the level of impairment to daily activities at 2 hours after treatment. Each patient rated functional disability on a 4-grade scale (0 = no functional disability; 1 = daily activities mildly impaired; 2 = daily activities severely impaired; 3 = unable to carry out daily activities, requires bed rest).
    Nausea at 2 Hours After Dose
    Patients who recorded the presence or absence of nausea 2 hours after dose
