And thanks Lorin for sending me the information you found online!

Here are a few bullet points about the story that aired Monday at 5.

*Involved researchers from the San Francisco Headache Clinic.
*They followed 1,555 volunteers.
*They used either a placebo.. ibuprofen.. or a combination of: acetaminophen, aspirin and caffeine (Excedrin).
*The drugs worked better than the placebo.
*The combo drug worked faster and better for a majority of participants.
*Almost 60% of migraine sufferers use over the counter drugs.

And: here is the doseage info:

-1,555 migraine sufferers either took a placebo; or two tablets each
containing 200mg ibuprofen; or two tablets each containing 250mg
acetaminophen, 250mg aspirin and 65 mg caffeine.
