The previous guideline 'Migraine' has been replaced by the guideline 'Headache', which includes tension headache, migraine, substance-induced headache and cluster headache. For evaluation of the diagnosis and treatment of these types of headache, regular follow-up of these patients is necessary, preferably on the basis of a headache diary. In an individual patient, migraine and tension headache can occur interchangeably, even in the course of one attack. Ergotamine is no longer recommended for the treatment of migraine attacks in new patients. The pharmacotherapy of migraine must be adjusted to the medication already used by the patient and the severity of the attacks. The recommended treatment for substance-induced headache is to withdraw the responsible medicines completely; explanation, motivation, and support are very important. |
