KORTE INHOUD

Migraine is one of the most common conditions presenting in general practice and yet there is clear evidence that it is both undiagnosed and undertreated, despite the increase in availability of effective medication. This book provides a precise and straightforward guide to the diagnosis and management of migraine for GPs. It emphasises the value of taking a detailed headache history and the usefulness of patient diaries to elucidate triggers and document the effectiveness of therapies. The book takes the reader through diagnosis, differential diagnosis and management of migraine, with acute and prophlyactic treatments. It gives practical advice on drug choice and when to refer. The book focuses on the practicalities of managing migraine in primary care, and in this way provides a very useful clinical reference to the subject.
