Analgesic Overuse Among Adolescents With Headache, The Head-HUNT-Youth Study
Neurol 66:198-201,160, Dyb,G.,et al, 2006
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
The use of analgesics is common among adolescents with headache, especially among girls. Although this study did not directly evaluate for medication-overuse headache, the trend of frequent analgesic use suggests this possibility. Parents and physicians should increase their awareness of potential analgesic overuse, especially among adolescents with frequent headache.
