Paracetamol is normally what we be used. They come in 500mg tablets and you can take 2 to start. Don't take more than 6 a day though. Also, if she is also experiencing nausea, you could try Paracetamol 500mg / Metoclopramide 5mg tablets. Both of those would be available over the counter.
Edit: You could also ask them about Paracodol, which is 500 mg of Paracetamol and 8 mg of codine. Normally, in Europe and Canada it is available by just asking the pharmacist for it, however, I'm not sure how they handle that in SXM.

Paracetamol is tylenol, but in Eurpore is known as Paracetamol. It is made in higher doses than what tylenol would normally come in. If you start with 1000mg, it would normaly take care of pain associated with migraines. Excedrin is just 250mg asprin with 250 of tylenol with some caffine added. Even with taking 2 tablets, there isn't enough asprin or tylenol to deal with migraines. Just ask the pharamacist, but I'm pretty sure they are going to say Paracetamol, but I would inquire about the availability of Paracodol as well.
