Sometimes. It depends on what those other migraine medications are.

If you are talking about migraine specific medications, such as Imitrex (or anything where the ending of the generic version is "triptan") then yes.

If you are taking about preventative medications used to treat migraines, then also - yes.

Midrin contains acetaminophen. Fioricet with codeine also contains acetaminophen. Oxycodone is often prepared as Percocet, which has acetaminophen too. If you have been taking Excedrin or any Tylenol product, you need to be aware of this as well. People do die from liver failure from taking too much acetaminophen. The limit is 4000mg in a day, or 3000mg if you are taking it daily.

Oxycontin is an opioid pain reliever. It will not abort a Migraine attack like other more targeted medications. It can temporarily help with Migraine pain however.
