REBOUND HEADACHES and SOLUTIONS

Описание: Rebound headaches and solutions: otherwise known as Medication Overuse headaches

Utilizing over the counter medication 💊 for the occasional headache is fine. The trouble is people often abuse these medications and take them daily if not multiple times per day.

This can result in a rebound headache or a medication overuse headache🤯

Criteria for a medication overuse headache:
🟠 Headaches more than 15 days per month
🟢 Medication overuse more than 3 months
🔵 Headache developed or worsened with medication overuse

Solutions for Rebound Headaches:

Is caffeine effective for headaches ☕️🤔? (2:14)
.
Straight forward question. Messy answer.

For the occasional headache, caffeine seems to help alleviate headache symptoms for some. Caffeine has been shown to improve pain relief of over the counter medications and why it’s often included in these meds, like Excedrin.

Long term caffeine use is likely not beneficial. It can help add to the effects of medication overuse or rebound headaches discussed in our previous video.

Anyone who uses caffeine can tell you the feeling of caffeine withdrawal. Headaches, lethargy, irritable. 🙅🏻‍♂️

Recap:
Short term, occasional headache👍🏼
Long term, proceed with caution 🚦
