Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic
I reviewed your history.
Amitriptyline and Propranolol will help in preventing the recurrence of primary headaches like migraine.
For relief from headache you need to take analgesic tablets.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Hope this answers your question and the information is helpful to you.
Thank you
