Previous investigations examining health care resource utilization in patient populations have shown patients with migraine to consume significantly higher health care resources compared with individuals without migraine. The purpose of this study was to compare health care resource and narcotic use in migraineurs prescribed sumatriptan (oral, subcutaneous, or nasal) with those not prescribed sumatriptan.
