Abstract


Migraine is a common and often disabling neurologic disease, its high prevalence and disability significantly impact on patients and relatives, contributing to heavy social and economic burden. However, currently available migraine treatment options are limited and are often associated with many intolerable side­effects. Therefore, it is necessary to explore new therapeutic options for migraine. This review discusses the most recent and evidence­based advances in pharmacological and non­pharmacological treatment approaches for migraine.
