Headache associated with the chronic use of medications has become a significant problem in the management of headache. Typically, patients overusing analgesics suffer from tension headache, whereas those over-using triptans may experience daily migraine-type headaches or an increase in the frequency of migraine attacks. The treatment of choice in such cases is withdrawal of the medication followed as early as possible by medicinal prophylaxis of the primary headache.
