Aspirin and paracetamol are both effective in treating mild to moderate acute migraine headaches. Ibuprofen and indomethacin are also commonly used, but may not be as effective in all cases.

Propranolol and ketamine are not analgesic agents and therefore would not be appropriate choices for treating migraine pain.
