A 30-year-old man presents with a 1-month history of frequent intermittent headaches. He says the headaches typically occur between 3–4 times/day, mostly at night, each lasting minutes to 1–2 hours. He describes the pain as severe, stabbing, unilateral, and localized to the left periorbital region. He says he frequently notes increased tear production and conjunctival injection in the left eye and rhinorrhea during these headaches. He mentions that he had a similar 3-week episode of these same, frequent intermittent headaches 3 months ago which stopped completely until 1 month ago. He denies any seizures, loss of consciousness, nausea, vomiting, photophobia, or phonophobia. His past medical history is significant for stable angina secondary to coronary artery disease diagnosed on a stress echocardiogram 1 year ago. He reports occasional alcohol use, which he says precipitates the headaches, but denies any smoking or recreational drug use. The patient is afebrile, and his vital signs are within normal limits. A physical examination is unremarkable. A noncontrast computed tomography (CT) scan of the head is normal. Which of the following is the best abortive treatment for this patient?
