Analgesic Rebound as a Cause of Hemicrania Continua
Neurol 48:1540-1541, Warner,J.S., 1997
See this aricle in Pubmed
Article Abstract
Hemicrania continua is a rare unilateral headache of unknown etiology that characteristically responds to indomethacin.Most previous case reports fail to mention analgesic use by these patients or the results of analgesic avoidance.This is a case report of a 42-year-old woman with persistent unilateral headaches that ceased 3 weeks after administration of analgesics was stopped.Thus,hemicrania continua can be caused by analgesic rebound.
