OBJECTIVE
To review recent advances in preventive headache treatment.
RESULTS
Migraine may be a progressive disorder. Aggressive treatment may stop progression. Propranolol, the beta-blocker, and the anticonvulsant topiramate are effective for migraine prevention. Feverfew, montelukast and acupuncture have not proven effective.
CONCLUSIONS
New drugs and other treatment strategies expand the spectrum of preventive migraine treatments.
