• Vanno sempre escluse forme secondarie (es.
pseudotumor senza papilledema, glaucoma ect…)
• Le caratteristiche della cefalea vanno rivalutate dopo la
sospensione dell’eccessivo uso di analgesici
a)Emicrania
b)Cefalea tensiva ?
c)Cefalea a grappolo cronica?
d)Cefalea persistente di nuovo esordio?

Appendice
1.3 Emicrania cronica: NOTELa causa più comune di emicrania cronica è l’uso eccessivo di farmaci sintomatici.
Il 50% dei pazienti affetti da emicrania cronica ritornano ad un sottotipo di emicrania
episodica dopo la sospensione dell’abuso di farmaci sintomatici.
Molti pazienti che abusano di trattamenti sintomatici non migliorano dopo la
sospensione nell’assunzione di analgesici e quindi i pazienti che soddisfino i criteri
diagnostici per 1.3 Emicrania cronica e per 8.2 Cefalea da uso eccessivo di farmaci
dovrebbero ricevere entrambe le diagnosi.
Forme refrattarie o farmacoresistenti

Cefalea da Uso Eccessivo di Farmaci?
• Un paziente emicranico assume 10 triptani al mese con beneficio perché ha
10 crisi di emicrania al mese (con 5 gg di tensiva associata) da più di 3 mesi.
Quindi rientra nel criterio di CUEF. E’ una emicrania cronica in quanto rispetta
i criteri per la cronica, non c’è un problema di diagnosi differenziale tanto che
risponde ad analgesici specifici per l’emicrania.

had CM remission at 2 years. Remission was
defined as fewer than 10 days of headache per
month, and reported remission predictors were
the absence of allodynia and having a lower

Chronic headache with medication overuse: Long-term prognosis after withdrawal
therapy.
Bøe MG; Thortveit E; Vatne A; Mygland Å, Cephalalgia, 2017 Nov; Vol. 37 (13), pp. 1215-1221;
Background Knowledge about long-term outcomes after medication withdrawal therapy for chronic headache, including tension type and migraine headache is lacking. Methods We re-examined 56 patients an average of nine years after they participated in a medication withdrawal study with a one-year follow-up. We collected and compared data on headache, use of medication, quality of life, quality of sleep, anxiety, depression, and labor participation one and nine years after the start of withdrawal therapy. Results Headache days per month decreased from 16.7 (14.0-19.3) at one year to 13.3 (10.6-15.9) at nine years (P = 0.007). The proportion of patients meeting the criteria for chronic headache decreased from 27/56 (48%) at one year to 18/56 (32%) at nine years (P = 0.004). Medication overuse was reported in seven (13%) patients at one year and 18 (32%) at nine years (P = 0.013). The majority of patients overusing medication at nine years (10/18) belonged to a group of 14 patients who had a poor early response to withdrawal therapy and had sustained chronic headache after nine years. After excluding patients receiving retirement pensions, the proportion who received disability benefits increased from 21/55 (38%) at one year to 30/49 (61%) at nine years (P = 0.003). Conclusion Improvements after withdrawal therapy for chronic headache last at least nine years, with a parallel increase in the use of disability benefits. However, a high proportion of patients with a poor initial response to withdrawal therapy and sustained chronic headache overuse medication.
Trattamento della CUEF
Interruzione dell’eccessivo uso di analgesici:
•Come? brusca o graduale?
•Dove? ambulatoriale, ricovero?
•Sempre? è sufficiente iniziare una profilassi efficace?
•Quando? profilassi prima o dopo la sospensione?
•Cosa usare?

Caso Clinico
Paziente maschio di 50 aa con storia di emicrania senza aura che
assumeva da un anno un grammo di paracetamolo al giorno con
beneficio. Nessuna comorbilità o FR per cronicizzazione.
Informato
Motivato
Prescritto terapia per la cefalea da rimbalzo (cortisone 1gr pro kg per os) e
profilassi combinata con triciclico e beta-bloccante.
Dopo un anno torna. Aveva sospeso gli analgesici con miglioramento
della frequenza delle crisi senza assumere alcuna terapia, ne cortisone ne
di profilassi.
Aveva una frequenza di crisi di 3-4 al mese per le quali assumeva
paracetamolo che però non sempre funzionava.
Voleva un consiglio su cosa potesse assumere al posto del paracetamolo.
2010 Management of medication overuse
• achieve withdrawal from the overused medication.
• which should follow, is recovery from MOH.
• review and reassess the underlying primary headache disorder (migraine or tension type headache),
• prevent relapse, which has a rate of around 40% within five years and is most likely to occur within the first year after withdrawal.

Flunarizine versus topiramate for chronic migraine prophylaxis:
a randomized trial.
Lai KL et Al Acta Neurol. Scand. 2017 Apr;135(4):476-483
OBJECTIVES:
Chronic migraine (CM) is a prevalent and devastating disorder with limited therapeutic options. This study explored the efficacy of 10 mg/d flunarizine for CM prophylaxis as compared with 50 mg/d topiramate.METHODS:
We conducted a prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded-endpoint trial. Patients with CM were randomized to flunarizine and topiramate treatment. The primary outcomes assessed were the reductions in the total numbers of headache days and migraine days after 8 weeks of treatment. Secondary outcomes were reductions in the numbers of days of acute abortive medication intake and acute abortive medication tablets taken, and the 50% responder rate.RESULTS:
Sixty-two subjects were randomized (n=31/group). Patients treated with flunarizine showed significant reductions in the numbers of total headache days (-4.9 vs -2.3, P=.012) and migraine days (-4.3 vs -1.4, P=.001) compared with those treated with topiramate. Patients treated with flunarizine also showed significant reductions in the numbers of days of acute abortive medication intake (-2.3 vs -0.2, P=.005) and acute abortive medication tablets taken (-4.6 vs -0.5, P=.005) and had a higher 50% responder rate in terms of total headache days (58.6% vs 25.9%, P=.013) and migraine days (75.9% vs 29.6%, P=.001), compared with topiramate-treated patients. Flunarizine was generally well tolerated and had a safety profile comparable to that of topiramate.CONCLUSIONS:
Our results suggest that, in an 8-week study, 10 mg/d flunarizine is more effective than 50 mg/d topiramate for CM prophylaxis.

Sodium valproate in migraine without aura and medication overuse headache: a
randomized controlled trial.
Sarchielli P et Al.
OBJECTIVE: To assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of sodium valproate
(800mg/die) compared with placebo in medication-overuse headache patients with a
history of migraine without aura.
METHODS: This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled
study enrolled medication-overuse headache patients for a 3-month treatment
period with sodium valproate (800mg/day) or placebo after a 6 day outpatient
detoxification regimen, followed by a 3-month follow-up. Primary outcome was
defined by the proportion of patients achieving ≥50% reduction in the number of
days with headache per month (responders) from the baseline to the last 4 weeks
of the 3-month treatment. Multivariate logistic regression models were used on
the primary endpoint, adjusting for age, sex, disease duration, comorbidity and
surgery. The last-observation-carried-forward method was used to adjust for
missing values.
RESULTS: Nine sites enrolled 130 patients and, after a 6-day detoxification
phase, randomized 88 eligible patients. The 3-month responder rate was higher in
the sodium valproate (45.0%) than in the placebo arm (23.8%) with an absolute
difference of about 20% (p=0.0431). Sodium valproate had safety and tolerability
profiles comparable to placebo.
CONCLUSIONS: The present study supports the efficacy and safety of sodium
valproate in the treatment of medication overuse headache with history of
migraine after detoxification.

Acupuncture versus topiramate in chronic migraine prophylaxis: a randomized
clinical trial.
Yang CP1, Chang MH, Liu PE, Li TC, Hsieh CL, Hwang KL, Chang HH.
Cephalalgia. 2011 Nov;31(15):1510-21BACKGROUND:The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy and tolerability of acupuncture
compared with topiramate treatment in chronic migraine (CM) prophylaxis.METHODS:A total of 66 consecutive and prospective CM patients were randomly divided into two
treatment arms: 1) acupuncture group: acupuncture administered in 24 sessions over 12
weeks (n = 33); and 2) topiramate group: a 4-week titration, initiated at 25 mg/day and
increased by 25 mg/day weekly to a maximum of 100 mg/day followed by an 8-week
maintenance period (n = 33).RESULTS:A significantly larger decrease in the mean monthly number of moderate/severe headache
days (primary end point) from 20.2 ± 1.5 days to 9.8 ± 2.8 days was observed in the
acupuncture group compared with 19.8 ± 1.7 days to 12.0 ± 4.1 days in the topiramate
group (p < .01) Significant differences favoring acupuncture were also observed for all
secondary efficacy variables. These significant differences still existed when we focused
on those patients who were overusing acute medication. Adverse events occurred in 6% of
acupuncture group and 66% of topiramate group.CONCLUSION:We suggest that acupuncture could be considered a treatment option for CM patients
willing to undergo this prophylactic treatment, even for those patients with medication
overuse.

Greater occipital nerve block in the treatment of triptan-overuse headache:
a randomized comparative study.
Acta Neurol Scand. 2017 Apr;135(4):426-433.
Karadaş Ö1, Özön AÖ2, Özçelik F3, Özge A4.Acta Neurol Scand. 2017 Apr;135(4):426-433.
Acta Neurol Scand. 2017 Apr;135(4):426-433. OBJECTIVES:
This study aims to investigate the efficiency of a single and repeated greater occipital nerve (GON) block
using lidocaine in the treatment of triptan-overuse headache (TOH), whose importance has increased
lately.
MATERIALS AND METHODS:
In the study, 105 consecutive subjects diagnosed with TOH were evaluated. The subjects were randomized
into three groups. In Group 1 (n=35), only triptan was abruptly withdrawn. In Group 2 (n=35), triptan was
abruptly withdrawn and single GON block was performed. In Group 3 (n=35), triptan was abruptly
withdrawn and three-stage GON block was performed. All patients were injected bilaterally with a total
amount of 5 cc 1% lidocaine in each stage. During follow-up, the number of headache days per month, the
severity of pain (VAS), the number of triptans used, and hsCRP and IL-6 levels were recorded three times;
in the pretreatment period, in the second month post-treatment, and in the fourth month post-treatment.
They were then compared.
RESULTS:
There was a statistically significant difference in the post-treatment fourth month in comparison with the
pretreatment period in Group 3 (P<.05). Compared to Group 1, the number of headache days, VAS, and
decrease in triptan need in Group 3 was statistically significant compared to Group 2 (P<.05). Compared to
pretreatment, in the fourth month post-treatment, both hsCRP and IL-6 levels were lower only in Group 3
(P<.05).
CONCLUSIONS:
We are of the opinion that repeated GON block in addition to the discontinuation of medication has
significant efficacy for TOH cases.
We report the efficacy of three versus single session of 10 Hz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in chronic migraine (CM) and chronic tension-type headache (CTTH). Ninety-eight patients with CM or CTTH were included and their headache frequency, severity, functional disability and number of abortive medications were noted. Fifty-two patients were randomly assigned to group I (three true sessions) and 46 to group II (one true and two sham rTMS sessions) treatment. 10 Hz rTMS comprising 600 pulses was delivered in 412.4 s on the left frontal cortex. Outcomes were noted at 1, 2 and 3 months. The primary outcome was 50 % reduction in headache frequency, and secondary outcomes were improvement in severity, functional disability, abortive drugs and side effects. The baseline headache characteristics were similar between the two groups. Follow up at different time points revealed significant improvement in headache frequency, severity, functional disability and number of abortive drugs compared to baseline in both group I and group II patients, although these parameters were not different between the two groups. In group I, 31 (79.4 %) had reduction of headache frequency and 29 (74.4 %) converted to episodic headache. In group II, these were 24 (64.8 %) and 22 (59.2 %), respectively. In chronic migraine, the severity of headache at 2 months reduced in group I compared to group II (62.5 vs 35.3 %; P = 0.01). Both single and three sessions of 10 Hz rTMS were found to be equally effective in CM and CTTH, and resulted in conversion of chronic to episodic headache in 67.1 % patients.

Cephalalgia. 2017 Jan 1:333102417728873. Distribution of CGRP and CGRP receptor components in the rat brain.Warfvinge K1,2, Edvinsson L1,2.
Background Calcitonin gene-related peptide and its receptor, consisting of
receptor activity-modifying protein 1 and calcitonin receptor-like receptor, are of
considerable interest because of the role they play in migraine and recently
developed migraine therapies. Methods To better understand the function of this
neuropeptide, we used immunohistochemistry to determine a detailed
distribution of calcitonin gene-related peptide, receptor activity-modifying protein
1 and calcitonin receptor-like receptor in the rat brain in a region of 0.5-1.5 mm
lateral to the midline. We found calcitonin gene-related peptide immunoreactivity
in most of the neurons of the cerebral cortex, hippocampus, cerebellum,
thalamic nuclei, hypothalamic nuclei and brainstem nuclei. In contrast, receptor
activity-modifying protein 1 and calcitonin receptor-like receptor
immunoreactivity were found almost exclusively in the neuronal processes in the
investigated regions. Conclusion Overall, the degree of expression of calcitonin
gene-related peptide and calcitonin gene-related peptide receptor components
in the central nervous system is astonishingly complex and suggestive of many
different brain functions, including a possible role in migraine. However,
currently, the presence of calcitonin gene-related peptide and the nature of its
receptors throughout the brain is an enigma yet to be solved.
