Priority directions in migraine treatment
Migraine is a chronic disease that breaks conventional lifestyle, performance efficiency, leading to patients disadaptation. The paper discusses the problem of therapy and prevention of migraine attacks. We considered drugs of different pharmacological groups used for the treatment of acute pain attacks and preventive therapy. It is emphasized that the prevention of migraine is one of the most effective ways to disease control. The requirement for preventive therapy is determined not only the frequency, duration and intensity of migraine attacks. The indications for preventive treatment are: high level of patients disadaptation, the presence of comorbid disorders, complications of migraine and high risk disease "chronification".
