摘要
The availability of many over-the-counter drugs that were formerly prescription medications enable patients with migraine to self-medicate easily and delay entry into the appropriate medical management. The potential for adverse effects, drug interactions, and analgesic rebound headaches can often be complications that hinder treatment. Over-the-counter products force the patient to employ a less effective step-care approach as opposed to evidence-based guidelines. © 2002, Current Science Inc.
