What is cafergot?

Migergot 2 mg-100 mg Rectal Suppository
Drug Name: ERGOTAMINE/CAFFEINE-RECTAL
Other Brand Names: Cafergot, Migergot
Uses: This combination medication is used to treat or prevent a certain type of headache (vascular headaches such as migraine headaches and cluster headaches). Ergotamine helps narrow widened blood vessels in the head, which reduces the throbbing effects of vascular headaches. Caffeine increases the effects of ergotamine by also narrowing the widened blood vessels in the head. The suppository form is used when medications cannot be taken by mouth (e.g., due to nausea and vomiting).
