Nausea is a defining feature of episodic migraine. Migraine‐associated nausea can cause patients to delay or avoid taking oral medication. In April 2011, a round table of headache specialists and a gastroenterologist was convened to explore unmet needs in the treatment of migraine vis‐à‐vis gastrointestinal signs and symptoms. This supplement summarizes the proceedings of that roundtable meeting.
