Hi,
First of all, there are many factors which can cause headache such as oral contraceptive pills, hypertension, menopause and renal diseases. Thus, you should do some investigations to exclude these causes. Second, Demerol cannot treat migraine. If you did not have systemic illnesses, you could take Amitriptyline for 3 days then one tablet before sleep to prevent migraine.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
